The upper part of my radiator melted and broke off. Its the part that connects the radiator to the upper radiator hose. Now my upper hose can only stay on for a few min before falling off.

My question is , Do I need to raplace the entire radiator or can I just get a new upper section of the radiator ?

This is very bad being I am trying to make it to the track on Sunday :(


Hello Mr. 12's . How are you today ?

You need to get a new one. They are really cheap used, or you can spend the $350 for a Fluidyne.

You will need to replace it. If you look around, there is likely a radiator/cooling speciality shop in your city (or nearby) that has inexpensive stock style replacement radiators.

Or fluidyne is always an option.

i got my replacement radiator for 125bucks brand new!! 350?!?! sheesh...it took me 2 hours to install with no instructions hehe..if you have an auto, make sure you watch out for the tranny cooler lines and dont mix them up!

there is a big differece between the BS stock one you put in and the Alum. fluidyne that jeff is talking about, i myself had done the fluidyne and was very happy that i did...
