even if cap is only holding half the pressure removing cap when hot will still result in the water being chucked out
anyway a new cap and thermostat is always a good thing when replacing gasket ,if it is that --overheating may have damaged either or both

Welsh, epic bump, would it not rise above halfway if the fan was not cutting in or manually operated i.e on a switch?
