Ok, well the one that the shop put on is 16psi. That's around 1.1bar so that's not the problem. I can see if it was an 18 or 19psi cap but it's not.
Yeah, its an OEM that I've been popping the end caps on. Strange part is I'm still using the OEM hoses instead of silicone. They haven't expanded that I've noticed. Thought that would have happened before the end tanks...
Compression test came out within spec so not sure what's going on.
