The pressure  in my 2001 deville radiator is not very much.There is not much pressure in the radiator hose , it can be squssed  pretty easy. Dont seem to be loosing any fluid,dont run hot. any ideas. havent had the cap tested yet but the seal seems good. thanks

I really would worry about it, as long as coolant level is full and engine is not overheating. Pressure builds up as coolant heats up. Cap should be 17 psi

Don''t want to speak for slowroll but he means "really wouldn''t worry about it." Ditto for me, you can squeeze the rad hose on most cars, just try someone elses.
