Good call. The radiator cap needs to be tight as being loose will lower the boiling point of the water. Loose cap = nearly atmosphere pressure, tight cap should be 3 bar/45psi (I think?). Luther KB5QHUForest Park, IL '98 ML320 Max (166,xxx mi) On 6/14/2013 5:34 PM,

Curt's problem is that it's getting too hot. The non-tight cap in immaterial. --Philip pressure raises the boiling point. a 1 bar cap will get you about 30 degrees F. or 242-250 depending on altitude and atmospheric conditions. I'd put the cap on and try it again.
