i was just wondering i found a old radiator in my shed from 2g and my 2g needs one. i dont remember if it was good or bad? how do i text radiator out of the car?

If you have a cooling system pressure tester you can use that. If you don't have one you can rent one at AutoZone. You can also take it to any radiator repair shop and they should be able to test it for you.

i have one but how would i plug it into radiator? i have the fitting the goes in the thermostat housing cap? and then i would have an extra hole to plug?

Plug the holes and fill it up with water..If it leaks it's obviously bad..

if it don't leak then couldn't it leak under pressure?

say if its good just holding water could it leak once its hooked up on car? with pressure?

Yes, I would have a shop test it out, can't cost that much.

Ebay aluminum radiator is fine. I just bought one for around $135 shipped.

Install was slightly difficult due to it being a lil thicker & my j-pipe was touching the radiator hose. Needless to say, eventually it will rub a hole in it. Plan ahead.
