There is another less sophisticated or crude test for suspected head/gasket leakage into the coolant system. You can stretch a condom over the neck of the reservoir and block the overflow pipe with a clamp which will also tell you whether there is undue pressure created in the coolant system. Crude but often effective.
Don't let the wife find the packet though.................she'll never believe you.![EEK!](https://landroverforums.com/forum/images/smilies/bmHv6Xb.png)

This one has the correct adapter :

I cranked my system up to 22 PSI and found two leaks right away, one from the small hose under the reservoir, another from the radiator top hose.
