Resolved Replacing 1G Radiator

[Shigun]

I'm going to be doing this today. Are there any quirks or whatnot I need to be careful of? I've never actually done this before, but removing the radiator from the parts car in the junkyard, it did not seem like it would be a big problem (though, the lines going to it were cut, so that was making it a bit easier).

Are there any special things I need to pay careful attention to as well?

Make sure you get the fan switch off the bottom of your old radiator and put it in the new one. Other wise you will start filling the radiator and see it come out the bottom.

It will be just as simple as taking out the one from the parts car. Just make sure you get all the plugs disconnected before you start to take out the radiator.

You might want to take it to a radiator repair shop and have it pressure tested before installing it. Used radiators are notorious for leaks and corrosion problems.
