Replaced my stock radiator cap with a pressure release cap and as soon as the pressure built up it started leaking. Putting my stock cap back on.

The pressure is suppose to force water back to make up tank and then when pressure goes down it sucks it back keeping your radiator full, that's why it has that type of cap, but if you are getting too much pressure you might have a head gasket leak, just a thought, cheers
