I think "CPS" is the acronym for California Power Systems.........a 
light sport mail order house.

  We'll it's time for me to put my plane back together after a long 
annual and a few mods. I have been considering going back to using 50/50 
instead of the Evans. Reading the archives most seem to think it runs 10 
or so degrees cooler, plus it's less flammable and I can buy it 
anywhere. My question is for Ira or anyone else. Ira here is what you 
said on a previous archive. 

  The day after SnF, I put in the new 1.2 cap ($29. at CPS, $74 at 
  Lockwood at SnF, since reduced). During the next taxi run to
  the active, all the coolant blew out my overflow tank. Fortunately it 
has 
  not happened since


  1st do I need to change my radiator cap and if so what does CPS stand 
for? In other words where did you buy it for $29.00? I'm for cheeper if 
possible. 

  Thanks in advance!
  Jeff Roberts.
  A258 - N128LJ / Gold Rush 176 hours down for mods & annual.
