Re: Radiator Repair/ Overheat.

how do i come up with a size? is there a kit for this car? or do I just take them loose, pop off the o-rings, and bring them in some where?

Never mind. I found them on IPD, just on on fcp, which is where I'm ordering the rad from.

Re: Radiator Repair/ Overheat.

Are there some seals I should get to go with it? I saw a seal kit you (jblackburn) reccomended to someone for a '98 but I can't find anything for mine (2000 turbo).
