Coolant pressure valve replacement

Found a nice crack in the lower portion of the pressure valve above the coolant tank.
After 24 years and 68000 miles. Boxster S
Scratched my head wondering why I was loosing antifreeze.
New part on its way.
If your getting condensation (actually antifreeze) on the trunk lid on the right side
And fluid out the tube behind the rear passenger tire, could be a faulty or cracked valve. Easy fix. 7mm socket. The heads of the screws are not very thick so
you will need to use a flat socket that can grab the head. My Craftsman socket is rounded on the end and would not grab on.
