Buy the tool. IT will come with instructions, and combined with clark's garage's procedure, you CAN'T go wrong. BEATS the bejesus outta the other methods. Think about it.

Adjust your pressure test pressures depending on the condition/age of your cooling system components.

In other words, if you have old, crappy parts in the car, you sure as hell don't want to stress them more by pumping the pressure up to the maximum pressure of 14.5 psi for the earlies, or the 21.75 psi for the later ones. Stay below this at maybe 10-12 psi. Unless of course, you REALLY wanna know. Ive done it at the max, and I assure you, you WILL find the weak links in the system, so be prepared.
