Car Fix DIY Videos

Hey everyone! We are excited to bring you this DIY. Recently, we picked up an upgraded Heat Exchanger from the guys over at Merc Racing. This is a dual core/quad pass unit. Merc Racing sent us the exchanger, as well as their install kit to take the guess work out of getting this thing hooked up correctly. We realize this is a longer video, but we wanted to go as in depth as possible on this one. Make sure you watch with the sound on as there is a voice-over talking about what’s going on in the video. If you have any questions or suggestions leave them in the comments, and make sure you Subscribe!

Update #1: In the video, when mounting the brackets to the crash bar, I accidentally put the washers on the bracket side instead of with the head of the bolt. This was a slip of the mind, and I didn’t think twice about it, because two of my bolts sank right into the groove that runs on the front of the crash bar. This locked them in and I didn’t even think about putting a washer between the two. Keep this in mind when you install.

Update #2: @ 5:50 I started explaining how to remove the passengers side coolant hose from your stock heat exchanger. It goes without saying, but I didn’t mention that you do the same thing to remove the drivers side coolant hose as well.

A couple minutes later I go over the contents of the merc racing install kit and mentioned that I only used 4 of the 6 hose clamps. That was a lie. I used all 6.
