Before you remove the automatic transmission oil cooler lines, provide a container to catch the oil that is drained from the automatic transmission oil cooler and the lines. Do not reuse the drained fluid.
Important: Install a new set of insulators when you replace a radiator. Used insulators may be worn out or too large for the new radiator. These conditions may cause the radiator to be loose.
Tilt the radiator.
Notice: Use the correct fastener in the correct location. Replacement fasteners must be the correct part number for that application. Fasteners requiring replacement or fasteners requiring the use of thread locking compound or sealant are identified in the service procedure. Do not use paints, lubricants, or corrosion inhibitors on fasteners or fastener joint surfaces unless specified. These coatings affect fastener torque and joint clamping force and may damage the fastener. Use the correct tightening sequence and specifications when installing fasteners in order to avoid damage to parts and systems.
