extremely unlikely to cause it to explode.

Utter claptrap that just proves how wrong you are "Jerry" In no way
does this equate to a simple load test. Just get back to your
plumbing counter and stop messing with things you simply do not
understand.

Unlike Drivel who likes to claim many things about himself without any
proof, I can assure you Jerry has worked in the motor trade for many a
year.
