I'm changing the radiator on my 96 Jeep Grand Cherokee. How do I disconnect transmission cooler line?

I've got everything detached but the transmission line. It appears to attach to the radiator using a mechanism that I should be able to squeeze, and pull the line connection out..... But, thats not working. How exactly do I disconnect the line?I'm changing the radiator on my 96 Jeep Grand Cherokee. How do I disconnect transmission cooler line?Many of these new connectors are a use once and break trying to remove connector.



In other words, it may require enough force to pinch this thing to remove it that it breaks the connector and then you'll just have to buy new ones to reassemble or install the lines in the new radiator. Same deal on heater core lines on Chrysler products. Save the old piece so they can match it at the store. I know NAPA stocks these connectors.



I don't think there is a tool to do this but you might ask your local auto parts place.

HOW 2 CHANGE THE RADIATOR FLUID?

I would like to drain the radiator and re-fill with new anti-freeze. How do i drain it, where is the drain located, how do i re-fill it again? i have been reading about making sure that there is no air bubble left or engine will over heat... please some explain to me how to do this... thank you, by the way..it's my first time doing this, i am a female so just explain as i may not know what parts are called what.... thank uHOW 2 CHANGE THE RADIATOR FLUID?It's not too tough but you do have to have the vehicle either on a lift or on service ramps. Beyond that you just have to know which drain plug to pull, generally it's the lower radiator hose and then a plug or two on the bottom of the engine block. After that you take off the radiator cap and flush it through with water from a hose, with the drain plugs still removed, until the water runs clear. Then you replace the plugs, fill 'er up and run the car with the radiator cap off until the thermostat opens. You can tell the thermostat opened by feeling the upper radiator hose, it'll get hot when it opens. You should also squeeze the upper radiator hose once the thermostat's open so you can get the bubble out of it. Check the coolant level. Add if necessary or put the radiator cap on and you're done.



All of that being said this is the perfect job for a do-it-your-selfer, but I wouldn't tackle it without at least a hayne's manual.



Including the purchase of the ramps you should be able to do this yourself for under $50. You'll save about $10 - $20 over a shop doing it and you'll have service ramps so you can do other things on your own too. If you already have ramps this will be under $20.HOW 2 CHANGE THE RADIATOR FLUID?i dont know how to drain it but when you fill it back up just pour the water mixed with antifreeze right down the radiator to the rim and its that simple

If My Radiator Cap Is Bad, What Are The Syptoms?

Will a bad radiator cap make your car over heat, how do I know if I need to change my radiator cap?If My Radiator Cap Is Bad, What Are The Syptoms?Yes it will by letting coolant overflow at too low of a pressure. This can also happen if you have the wrong radiator cap for your engine. The wrong pressure rating.If My Radiator Cap Is Bad, What Are The Syptoms?The only way to tell that your cap is bad is to have it pressure tested. I don't know who would do it for free. A radiator cap builds pressure in your cooling system, raising the boiling point of the coolant. Hopefully thats your problem, but I'm skeptical.If My Radiator Cap Is Bad, What Are The Syptoms?A bad cap will cause over heating . Sometimes , it is not easy to tell when one is bad with out a tester . Usually an excessive amount of over flow in the bottle will tell . If you are suspicious of yours , change it . They are not expensive .If My Radiator Cap Is Bad, What Are The Syptoms?Yes a bad radiator cap can make your car overheat. It can also spill coolant on the ground. Whenever you see a puddle of coolant on the ground, especially if the car is warm or running, the radiator cap is the first thing you suspect.



The way a radiator works, it's full of coolant. As the engine gets hot, the coolant expands. It's supposed to be under pressure, because pressurized coolant can get hotter (like water in a pressure cooker), so it can carry away more heat, so your radiator works better. But it can only be under so much pressure before things begin to burst. So the radiator cap has a spring in it. When the pressure gets above a certain threshold, the cap backs off and allows some coolant to flow to the overflow reservoir. When the engine cools off, it sucks the coolant back from the reservoir.



The cap has a number on it, either pounds or 'bar' (atmospheric pressure), and that's the amount of pressure it holds. If the spring gets weak, or the gasket wears out, it won't hold that pressure and you'll either not have as much cooling capacity or else it will spill coolant on the ground as it expands, instead of it going to the reservoir. There used to be machines at gas stations and auto parts stores that could measure the strength of the spring in radiator caps, but I don't know these days. You can buy another one cheap enough. It should have the same number on it for the same pressure.If My Radiator Cap Is Bad, What Are The Syptoms?Put a new one on. If the problem stops, that fixed it. That's probably $10 or less. There are other places cooling systems can leak, so be ready to pay for professional help.If My Radiator Cap Is Bad, What Are The Syptoms?YES IF YOUR CAP IS BAD. YOUR COOLANT SYSTEM WORKS OF OF PRESSURE EACH VEHICAL IS DIFFERENT IF MY VEHICLE WAS OVER HEATING I WOULD THINK THE THERMOSTAT. IF YOUR CAP IS BAD COOLANT MIGHT BE LEAKING OUT BUT NOT ALWAYS IT MIGHT LET YOUR COOLANT TRANSFER TO YOUR OVER FLO TANK IF ITS BAD . IF YOU DRIVE YOUR CAR FOR AWHILE THEN YOU SHUT IT OFF AND YOU CAN HEAR A GURGALING SOUND YOUR CAP COULD BE BAD.If My Radiator Cap Is Bad, What Are The Syptoms?sorry babe, if you have a car built within the past 20 yrs, and its not a v8, then you probably now have a bad head gasket/warped heads. the cap could have caused it, but now chances are its bad.also pressure raises the boiling point of the coolant, like freon in an a/c.do not buy the cap with the pressure release lever, dont ask!

How To Properly Change And Flush Radiator on a 1995 Lexus LS400?

So I'm attempting to flush and put in new coolant in my 95 LS400 but I noticed that the cooling system setup is different on this car than others. Is there a write up on here somewhere on how to properly do this?

I have a 98 Jeep Wrangler and wanted to know how to change the radiator and water pump. how long will it take?

Not a job for a novice. There are several panels that must be removed from this Jeep to extract the radiator and several components to be removed from front of engine to extract water pump...If you are not depending on this for sole transportation then there is a way to learn. Buy a Chilton's or Haynes manual on the vehicle. It is a repair guide written for the laymen that includes pictures. It is a bumper to bumper guide for complete and total tear down and rebuild of the entire vehicle divided into specific sections easy to define.



If it is your sole transportation, shell out the money and save yourself a whole lot of aggravation.I have a 98 Jeep Wrangler and wanted to know how to change the radiator and water pump. how long will it take?Not to sure on a wrangler but I do know. There is no radiator that is going to take 30 minutes. You always have to take out more then what you expect and just be prepared to be there for a few hours. Grab you a book at autozone or somewhere like that on your vehicle. Them books are life savers.I have a 98 Jeep Wrangler and wanted to know how to change the radiator and water pump. how long will it take?radiator 20 minutes maybe

i did a rad in my dads old new yorker... took about 20-25 minutes, including draining and refilling the antifreezeI have a 98 Jeep Wrangler and wanted to know how to change the radiator and water pump. how long will it take?It's not too bad. The fan shroud is a bit of a pain, but the radiator is only two hoses and 4 bolts. At that point the pump should be fairly easy to get to. I would advise you to replace the thermostat while you are in there.I have a 98 Jeep Wrangler and wanted to know how to change the radiator and water pump. how long will it take?Honestly I let a 16 year old change mine out in my 99 wrangler, and he had never been under the hood of a car. It took him about an hour to do it by himself, but we made sure he had someone who knew what they were doing supervising. Took a little longer than normal because the adult didn't assist just made sure it was done right. It was a learning experience. I will warn you make sure you get a radiator with a warranty, I replaced my factory one and within a year it blew the top seal, that's why he had to change it in order to borrow it for the weekend.
