How do you replace the radiator on a 92 Toyota Camry 6 cylinder automatic with air conditioning?

Answer 1

First you must make sure that the car is a little cool. then you must drain out the antifreeze that is in the system. Remove the hose that connects to the radiator. Then on the fan that is between the radiator and the engine you must remove the screws that hold it in place. then disconnect the hoses that are on the bottom left-hand side if your are facing the car. Then there are also connectors that are from the radiator that are connected to the actual car that need to be disconnected. Make sure that fan is totally disconnected from the radiator. then pull out the radiator. When you put the new radiator in make sure that your are not caught on anything. then put the screws back in that hold the radiator in place. then out the hoses on in the correct spot and make sure that YOU PUT THE CLAMPS ON THE HOSE IN THE EXACT SAME PLACE AS THEY WERE BEFORE otherwise you will have a slow leak and the engine will overheat. Then put the clamp back on the top of the radiator (NOTE: IF THE AFTERMARKET RADIATOR IS TOO BIG THE ORIGINAL CLAMP WILL NOT FIT OVER THE NEW RADIATOR. SO YOU WILL NEED TO CUT OFF THE BRACKET THAT IS IN THE WAY WHICH IS THE PIECE CLOSER TO YOU IF YOU ARE LOOKING AT IT. CUT OFF WITH A DREMEL OR SOMETHING.) then put antifreeze in the radiator itself and then when you cannot put anymore start the car with the cap off and it will go down. then pour more antifreeze till it is full. MAKE SURE THAT YOU HAVE ENOUGH ANTIFREEZE.IT MIGHT TAKE A WHILE TILL ALL THE ANTIFREEZE IS FULLY REPLACED. and that is how you replace a radiator.
