[AMC-list] Windshield trim clips



Cool Thanks!  Unfortunately I went to two stores today and checked the Help 
racks b4 I got this response and ddi not find them there or in the Dorman 
Catalogue.  I will try going to the "Big City" tomorrow and check some racks 
with more variety.  Unfortunately, with Parts Proliferation being the issue it 
is, a lot of chains are spreading out their slower moving items to be "in a 
market" rather than at every store.  I had to drive close to 30 minutes just to 
get a big cap adapter to use a Motorcraft wide cap on the 88 Wagon!  


Times they are a changing!  Any chance you guys can give me a part number?  

Thanks and have a great week, 

Jesse

I found a chart for plain water. Each psi over 15 psi (atmospheric pressure) 
raises the boiling point by 3? (212?F at atmospheric pressure). BUT, anything 
added to water will increase the boiling point/decrease the freezing point. So 
the ethylene glycol has that effect too.

http://www.engineeringtoolbox.com/boiling-point-water-d_926.html

Check this Wikipedia article out! It has the boiling point vs. concentration of 
ethylene glycol (anti-freeze). Assuming that the boiling point is raised the 
same as water a 50/50 mix would boil at 225? + 3? for each psi over 15 psi (14.7 
psi).

So a 13 psi cap won't work -- I run a 16 or 17 psi cap, which only adds 3-6?. 
Somehow that doesn't sound right. I know some engine run around 250? without 
boiling over. Is a radiator cap rated at psi over atmospheric? Then a radiator 
would run 225? + 36? (261?) with a 13 psi cap and 50/50 mix... which sounds 
about right...

Oh right, 223F B.P. at atmospheric pressure. I can't seem to find a credible
chart or formula for pressure vs. B.P.  but two random pages stated 48
degrees increase in boiling point at 15psi.

So coolant is NOT boiling in the head at 230F, so that is unlikely to be a
problem.

Still gotta find a chart or formula for this, but thanks Andrew!!

Would not 15 psig (gauge pressure - pressure in the cooling system) be 29.7 psi 
absolute?
?

Pretty sure a 15psi cap is 15psi over to open. If it was just 15psi then it may
as well be open to the atmosphere. : )

Cool, thanks! That solves it.

I'm sure the raised-pressure is PSIG, over atmospheric, so your 16 lb cap
would raise the boiling point of pure water 16 * 3 = 48 degrees F, or 212 +
48 = 260F. Duh, I forgot, I could have just looked at the steam tables and
water info in my CRC physics book! Why didn't I think of that?!

So not bothering to compensate for glycol under pressure, a 13 lb cap with
50/50 would be 223F plus 39F = 262F boiling point, minimum.

(You sure as crap don't want to pop the cap open when the engine is hot. The
towtruck driver on my ill-fated tow home last month did that on his
overheated big diesel truck (the duma**). When I saw him start on the cap I
got back 20 feet. The cap zoomed straight up 20 feet and was lost until I
found it 30 minutes later. I distinctly remember the ONE time I popped a cap
on a hot engine, my '62 Ambo, when I was 18. Peeled the skin off my
shoulder. Lucky it wasn't my face and eyes.)

There's probably a reason why most coolant temp gauges are calibrated for
280 full scale!

Jesse, 
?
They are as near as you nearest auto parts store on the HELP rack.?? I think 
they are standard Ford clips, but take an old one with you to match it up.

Those clips are at any auto parts store. I just replaced a windshield in an 
Eagle and got them at Auto Zone. They used a couple different styles, so bring 
the old ones......Russ
