doing it to a 96 gmc z71 right now thanks for the help man! easy vid to follow
It may be a similar procedure. Hope this helps you out. 1aauto.com 888-844-3393
will this work on 07 silverado’s
my 96 silverado radiator blew, so in the next two weeks i planned on taking it into the shop, but after watching this video it seems so simple to do it yourself.i think ill give it a shot! thanks for the great tutorial much appreciated.
Thank you
Just for fun go look in your tool box, see if you have a 25/32 wrench. Wow what a difficult wrench to try buy in town, thnx for video
Much Obliged, Will be doin this on a ’92 burban.
Thanks for watching 888-844-3393
I will be doing this to a ’97 Tahoe this weekend, so this vid helped. thx!
While you’re in there and already have most of the old fluid out, yes it’s not a bad idea to do this.
The two larger in diameter hoses are your oil cooler lines. They will each be on the same side. These often fail on GM vehicles and in fact in this video you can see one has failed (notice all the leaking oil). The smaller diameter hoses (metal hoses) are your transmission cooler lines and will be resident on the opposite side from the oil lines.
You should flush the cooling system when replacing the radiator also replace the thermastat.
You should have a couple of transmission lines and possbly also a couple of oil cooler lines.
what are the lines called on the four ports on radiator one on the bottom is oil line what are the lines called mine broke when taken radiator out need to find out what there called so i can order then i have a 1995 gmc yukon thank u
yes agreed, use it! It’s cheaper. again, my point was that chevy owner manuals say to use dexcool. Why> because dexcool is owned by chevy. Also in a couple of my vehicle that I had used dexcool at the time. seemed to develop a good amount of sluge in the reservoir. Never had had an issue with the “green” collant
There is a green coolant that they sell that does say “for use with all coolant colors” or something to that effect.
little tip, chevy say’s to use dexcool, why? because they own the company…
There are coolants on the market now that are made to be mixed with any color.
if i remember right, you dont want to use green if you engine is designed for orange or purple. these arent supposed to be interchanged
Yes you will want to get all that Dexcool out and replace it with regular antifreeze
Do I need to flush the old coolant when I replace my radiator? I will be using the green coolant instead of the red coolant I use now
This is actually a suburban. The process basically the same for all GM SUVs 92-99 and trucks 88-98
What model tahoe is this?
