I don’t think that was the coolant temperature sensor on the radiator.
Hello…where can I install the automatic transmission cooler?
I like watching your videos it helps me or It will help me for future projects. I bought Lexus is300 2003 and it leaks oil everywhere and the timing belt is way overdue for replacement…
I replaced the radiator and ran the car. It ran for about 10 minutes and it slowly started to turn off and it just shut off now when I try to start the it won’t start. At first I missed a step in your video where you took the old sensor from the old radiator and put it on the new radiator and I think that’s the reason the car shut off so I took the radiator out again and put the sensor in the new one from the old one and it still doesn’t want to start. Idk what else to do please help
I bought a new radiator and the new one did not have a electrical temp sensor you unplugged at the bottom of the radiator. Will the car run without it?
If I just replacing my thermostat… do I have to drain the coolant out so It doesn’t give me any coolant leak when I remove the thermostat ?
Well done with simple instructions, thanks.
Would it be a good idea to use some teflon tape or something when reinstalling the coolant temp sensor on the new radiator?
Dude, you're the best. The last owner of the car that I bought did the least amount of work possible in maintaining it, so now I'm trying to go back and do everything proper. This video helps a ton.
thanks, so much
