Svivel tank CAP - what is correct rating?

well I lost all cooling liquite Saturday, what a mess..got stuck in the autobahn and burned a whole day by this mess.

Analysis:

1) clamps on the all ruber hoses are not the correct grade... so one below was blowing  off..   = >>> I will replace all of them!!

I have the bad thought that the pressure on the system might be TOO high...

2) My current SVIVEL Tank cap is rated 20 LBS!!!!!!   Is this too much???? , as looking now at the endless communication on Water Tank CAPS it appears it should be 13 lbs only.!  This would give me app 130 deg C = 266 F..at see level.

 

CAN YOU PLEASE CONFIRM? Danke!

(my set up is
- all new SS New Tanks from Hall, with SHORT NECK app. 19 mm,  def not 26 = 1"
- Fluidine
- smaller pulley for water pump
- temp measured at the block
)
