Loosen one cooling line at the radiator, and let the fluid drain into a pan. When the fluid has stopped draining remove the other end of the hose. Pull the hose out and put the new one in following the same path. Do the same for the other hose, then refill the transmission using the dipstick to make sure to not over flow the system. Check the fluid level and all fittings after a short drive.

These are cooler lines, the fluid flows in them from the transmission to the cooler in the radiator or auxiliary cooler then back on most vehicles to help in keeping the transmission from overheating ASE certified tech / L1


How do you remove and replace the radiator in a 1994 ford F 150?

First drain it from the drain cock, then unbolt the fan shroud and remove it (this may require you to remove the water pump fan), next remove the radiator hoses (top and bottom), remove the overflow hose, undo the transmission cooler lines (for automatic transmissions only). Now you can unbolt the radiator and lift out. Installation is reverse of removal.


Can you change a automatic to manual transmission and about how much does it usually cost?

Not knowing the make or the model it is impossible to guess. Generally you would have to change the radiator, run the transmission lines and change out flywheel and possibly driveshaft. With older cars (early hydramatics, for example), you do not have to change the radiator and there ae no transmission lines, but in addition to changing the flywheel and driveshaft, you also have to add the linkage to the carburetor. You might need to change the ECM (computer) and you may be able to put in an oil cooler instead of changing the radiator. Another way to go would be to contact your local automotive junk yard and purchase a wrecked vehicle that is the same as yours except automatic. The vehicle would need to be damaged in a way that doesn't effect the parts you are interested in. You would then have everything needed to swap over including peddle assembly, steering column or console, linkages, wiring, switches, crossmember, flywheel, driveshaft, correct speedometer gears, cooling lines, radiator and so on.


Can you replace a 5-speed automatic with an 8-speed manual transmission?

Yes it can be done, but at what cost? Keep in mind it is much more than just swapping out the trans itself. You will have to change out the computer and wiring harness if your vehicle is 96+. You will also obviously need the pedal set, flywheel, clutch, slave cyliner, clutch master cylinder, hydralic lines, new driveshaft. I did it in a 96 1500 with a 4.3, and had to buy a truck for parts just to make it justifiable price wise.

The auto transmission in your 1993 ford aerostar has lines to the radiator how do you replace them they appear to be leaking Some of it appears to be rubber hoses what is the dia of these lines?

These are HIGH pressure cooling lines; make sure you replace them with the SAME quality lines or they will rupture and leave you stranded. You often need a flare nut wrench set to remove them as they can be very tight. If they are just barely seeping I would not replace them ,but if in fact they are LEAKING then you need to update them.


Where are the transmission cooling lines located on a 2000 Chevy Silverado?

They are on the passanger side of the transmission, They come out of the side of the trans and run up the side of the engine and hooks to the RADIATOR. Just follow the lines from the transmission. There are 2 of them.
