Myself, and the other mods have been very nice and lenient with the rules. We have been deleting threads, and giving out warnings. Some members didn't get the clue and re-posted over and over... Now ANY member buying or selling in this section will be banned... No IF's AND's or BUT's.

    pep-boys "universal" radiator

    I had to buy a new radiator from pep-boys today and It has oil lines for i am guessing transmission lines. Thing is that i don't have an auto my cb7 is a 5 speed. I took the radiator back to the store and there computers showed this radiator for both auto and 5 speed they basically told me it was universal anybody else ever heard of this?

    I never really had to buy a new radiator, but in your case you would just ignore the transmission cooler. It might even be good to block the ports off so water can't get in and rust it out.

    on the stairs, she grabs my arm, says whats up,
    where you been, is something wrong?
    i try to just smile, and say everything’s fine.

        so it needs to be pluged? What kind of plug is needed like a pipe fitting?

            oh ok so it doesn't need to be a pressurized fitting, just the little rubber caps that it came with.

                  That is for the transmission cooler. Auto transmissions pump the fluid through there. No fluid passes through there, so just leave those capped.

                    Here is what i am wondering about this....

                    If all of them have the Auto tranny Cooler, and that means all of them are only half radiators really.

                    Do they make ones that the whole radiator is used for coolant cooling and not tranny fluid cooling,

                    I feel like im getting robbed of cooling power, lol

                    NE GUYS, Buy the last of my accord parts

                      I was thinking the same thing! The tranny cooler isn't all that big, though. Certainly not half the radiator. I think there are some that don't have the tranny cooler, but I'm sure they're not the cheapie ones you'll get from an autoparts store.
