Buying a used radiator: what to check

  1. Inspect for bent fins, crusted seams, and dried coolant trails, all signs of leaks.
  2. Confirm automatic vs manual transmission versions; auto radiators include cooler lines.
  3. Plastic end tanks age badly. Favor low-mileage donors.
  4. Pressure-tested units are worth the premium; ask.
