So it's a 94 Accord with 67K miles. Barely broken in. :-)
It seems I have a small crack near the top of the radiator, about an inch long, It's weeping, but still able to maintain pressure, more or less. Anyway, I want to replace it - the crack isn't going to get any smaller.
I'm pretty handy, and wonder if I can do this myself. The local independent Honda/Accura repair shop is quoting me around $400.
I assume the fans unbolt and swing out of the way. That would leave the upper and lower radiator hoses, and I assume the transmission oil coolant connections. Anything else?
I guess what I'm looking for is some encouragement, maybe some detailed instructions on how to do this, and suggestions for where to get the replacement radiator.
Any suggestions appreciated. I'm particularly goosey about the transmission cooling.
I guess it's silly to think of putting JB Weld on the crack? I mean it looks like it's plastic, so I assume there's no way to patch the crack effectively. Right?
