Pontiac Firebird Radiator
Pontiac Firebird Radiator is known to be a part that plays a crucial role of keeping the engine coolant at optimum temperatures to avoid temperatur e rise, thus subjecting the vehicle's engine to heat stress leading to its possible failure. The Radiator's function is to release heat from the engine coolant and pass it to the surrounding air through the fins and tubes. Almost all Firebird Radiators have an aluminum core, accompanied by plastic or aluminum tanks, despite the fact that copper/brass Radiators exist. Performance Radiators produce replacements with better designs, bigger core, and better cooling characteristics for better performance of the engine. This is one of the fundamental processes of car engine maintenance that will help the Radiator to work effectively and properly cool down the engine, it includes checks for clogs, leaks, and proper fluid levels.
Each OEM Pontiac Firebird Radiator we offer is competitively priced and comes with the assurance of the manufacturer's warranty for the part. Furthermore, we guarantee the speedy delivery of your orders right to your doorstep. Our hassle-free return policy is also in place for your peace of mind.
Pontiac Firebird Radiator Parts Questions & Experts Answers
- Q: How to remove and install a radiator?A: Disconnect the cable from the negative battery terminal. Drain the radiator. On models with an engine-driven fan, unbolt the fan from the fan pulley hub and remove the fan assembly. On vehicles equipped with a fan clutch, store the clutch in an upright position to prevent seal leakage. On models with an electric fan, remove the fan assembly. Disconnect the upper and lower radiator hoses from the radiator. On vehicles equipped with an automatic transmission, disconnect the fluid cooler lines at the radiator and immediately plug the lines. Remove the clamp securing the coolant reservoir hose to the radiator outlet. On V6 models, remove the hose from the upper radiator shroud retainers. Remove the bolts securing the top of the upper radiator shroud to the metal support. Remove the bolts securing the bottom of the radiator shroud to the chassis, if so equipped. Pull straight up on the radiator and shroud assembly and remove it from the vehicle. Carefully examine the radiator for evidence of leaks and damage. It is recommended that any necessary repairs be performed by a reputable radiator repair shop. With the radiator removed, brush accumulations of insects and leaves from the fins and examine and replace, if necessary, any hoses or clamps that have deteriorated. The radiator can be flushed. Check the pressure rating of the radiator cap and have it tested. If you are installing a new radiator, transfer the fittings from the old unit to the new one. Installation is the reverse of the removal procedure. When setting the radiator in the chassis, make sure the bottom of the radiator is seated correctly in the two bottom cradles secured to the radiator support. After installing the radiator, refill it with the proper coolant mixture, then start the engine and check for leaks. If equipped with a new automatic transmission, check the transmission fluid level.
