Just got my new radiator, and a bunch of engine dress up items.. Gonna be a day and night endevor..
Some questions on the radiator. I have the new radiator installed, just need to hook up hoses. Should I flush my engine out with water before I do this? Is it as easy as turning on the engine and running water through the engine? Is there any steps I should be doing while filling up the radiator? Im using 50/50 mixture of distilled water, and coolant.
Should I be looking at anything else while im working with the radiator? I am replacing the fan and shroud as well.
1 last Q... My radiator is slightly different than the original - The two metal lines at the bottom of the radiator. One of them no longer lines up. Is it as easy as bending them to fit? Or should I replace the whole line? Is there a special tool to bend this type of line?
Hmmmm... lets see... I believe thats all of them... First time replacing my radiator, so Im just checking to be on the safe side.
