How to Change a Radiator (continued)
Step 10 of 11. Installing Cooling Fans
Remove the cooling fans from the old
radiator and install onto the new radiator.
Make sure the cooling fan motor turns freely
after the cooling fans have been installed.
Clean electrical connector and make sure it
is free from debris.
Step 11 of 11. Installing Radiator
After the radiator is ready for installation,
inspect the vehicle cavity that the radiator resides
in to make sure all dirt and
leaves have been removed. Reinstall
radiator and reconnect all hoses, clamps and
mounting bolts. After reinstallation is
complete, refill the radiator with engine
coolant. With the radiator cap off, let
the engine
warm up completely adding coolant until
full. Reinstall the radiator cap and
recheck the system for leaks. (Note: make sure
the coolant reservoir is about half full
with engine coolant.)
Before starting determine which cooling
system parts are needed. Inspect your
cooling system radiator, hoses, thermostat,
radiator cap and water pump then purchase
the appropriate parts to complete the job.
