Direct replacement radiator engineered for late-80s to late-90s Oldsmobile and Buick platforms. OEM-spec cooling performance without the dealership price tag. Built to handle factory coolant flow and pressure ratings.
Do I need to flush the cooling system before installing this radiator?
Yes. Old coolant can carry sediment and corrosion particles that will damage a new radiator core. Flush the system thoroughly with distilled water, then fill with fresh coolant rated for your vehicle's specifications.
Will the hoses and clamps from my old radiator work with this one?
The inlet and outlet ports match factory specs, so existing hoses will fit. Inspect clamps for rust or wear and replace if needed—old clamps often fail when pressure changes.
What if the radiator leaks after installation?
Test-fit the radiator dry before adding coolant. Check that all mounting brackets are secure and hose connections are hand-tight plus a half turn with a wrench. Overtightening can crack the plastic tanks.
