No tips. Maybe just - remove the fans first.
It is obvious once you start. Just remove it! |

I drive the car up on 6" blocks so that the Tranny fluid does not drain. Disconnect the hose to the over flow bottle. Drain the raditor by removing the bottom hose at the radiator. The fans can stay attached to the radiator just disconnect the wire connectors. Plug the trans hoses so nothing gets in. Do not leave the coolant system drained down for long if possible. Used distilled water when you fill it up with coolant. No solids in distilled water.
You mat want some new tranny hose and clamps before you start and coolant hoses and clamps. |
