im trouble shooting an overheating problem and have the car jacked up and the new alternator hanging. thinking tomorrow i might pull the radiator and have a mechanic friend give it to one of his friends for a quick bath. +- on this procedure. id like a new radiator but 140$ is a bit out of the question right now.
 
Rockauto.com $98.79

Its pretty easy to get it out, pull it out the bottom, slip in the new one. Make sure to check and see if the hoses need replaced because now is the time.
 
It after you get the bolts out, it pops into the bottom.. It will feel like it is snagged on something but if you give it a tug, it will pop out of those alignment plugs..
 
The bottom huh? Got the 150$ radiator off rockauto (at a very good price ;) )

going in this weekand.
 
I pulled mine out the top, there was far less BS involved to get it out the top.

Out the bottom, is gonna be a PITA.
 
You gotta pull that out of the top. It's wicked easy...
 
Out the top is the only way to do it??

Try pulling a 95 Continental radiator... you have to take the whole :q:q:q:qing car apart...
 
Anything with a conti requires taking it ALL apart?

How To Remove Trunk Lock:
1 - Remove front clip.

LOL

But yes out the top is easy. Trans lines, two hoses and two bolts and it slides right up - well you have to take the decorative plastic cover off.
