Anyone have an adaptor to fit a pressure tester to the radiator? (ST1300)
The service manual lists a OTCJ33984A. Google gives me everything but.
I can't even locate it on OTCs site.
My cooling system test kit has a universal adaptor which does not fit.
Mity Vac has a complete test kit for M/Cs I'm considering. It appears cheaply made reflecting on the price.
Thanks.

Why do you feel you need to pressure test the radiator?
Just curious.
If your looking at leaks, its probably just loose clamps etc.

Testing the cooling system is fairly easy.
Having to access the Right bank chain tensioner, it would be nice to clean the area up and check for leaks.

I have always used constant torque band clamps, you can get an assortment from amazon cheap. The nice thing is they expand and contract with the hose, never had a cold temp hose leak hose leak or one blow off. That way you don't have to dig into some of the places that are hard to reach just to retighten the worm drive type
