    Where cars and Reality Collide!
    Another in our series of 10 minute, something or other to do with cars!
    The challenge in this video is to replace a Car Radiator in 10 Minutes flat...
    Unfortunately it took me 12 Minutes.... So I had to delete some of the slow stuff to get it inside the 10 Minute UA-cam Limit!

    On my vehicles the transmission cooler is a separate condenser, but evidently yours is all in one, with two separate fans. The only way to make that kind of task look easy is if you've done it many times before. Thanks for the summary. Why did you unclamp that one hose high at the engine rather than at the radiator?

    Are you using a drill or it is a an impact wrench. I have a drill (hitachi) similar to yours I wonder if I can use it as a wrench on cars with proper bits. Thanks

    If you have old coolant, it is a good idea to flush it out of the system, but that can be tricky with a garden hose. You don't want your engine to get too hot while doing it so you don't crack your block.

    good video. btw im not a mechanic or anything like that but should procedures like this really be rushed through?

    Air bleeds out through the top of the radiator into the reservoir or if there is an air control valve, open it!

    It really took him 10min. It is an easy model of vehicle to do this on, which is why he used it for the video.

    working under Honda Civic Hood is really a pain in the Ass, you won't find any enough space for your hand to get anything fixed, the Honda Accord is way much easier to fix and work on .
