I believe the extra cooler is for automatic transmission models. The replacement must be a "one size fits all" part.
@NappMotorsports4 жыл бұрын
Yeah, it could be used for other add ons like power steering coolers as well.

Watched several radiator replacement videos and this is the best and easiest to follow so far! This gives me more confidence to do this. Biggest concern is jack stand placement as I’m always worried about getting under a jacked up car

Thanks for the feedback! Pinch welds are best. Sometimes I’ll throw the wheels underneath also if I start to get anxious while I’m under the car.

I wish I saw this video first. I watch another one and winged it when I try to take clips that attached the AC to the radiator. If i did it your way I wouldnt be in a pickle. Now I gotta try to reclip the AC line to the radiator. you showed an amazing view that made more sense to me. Thank you. I was losing hope and thought I had to remove my ac to get my Mushimotor radiator to fit

Couple tips I learned the hard way that weren't mentioned, if doing a full coolant flush be sure to run the heater to get the coolant/air flushed out of the core. Also make sure the rubber gasket on the funnel kit doesn't get stuck in the radiator fill neck otherwise you won't be able to (easily) get the rad cap back on.
@NappMotorsports4 жыл бұрын
The heater core will flush regardless of turning the heat on actually. It’s all propelled by the water pump, so fluid is flushing through the system no matter what! Did not know about the filler neck rubber gasket. I’ll keep an eye on that in the future so it doesn’t bite me. Thanks for the head up!
