My eg 1/2 size rad just came in the mail via UPS, cracked her open, noticed the standard upper/lower huge rad fittings, coolant cap, drain plug....

But theres also 2 little nipples at the bottom of the rad that when you blow into one the air comes out of the other hole and knowwhere else

I dont feel like leaving the building to check to see if my car (crx oem rad) has these as well, just wonderring if you guys could tell me what they were for

THanks

 

i think its for the auto transmission fluid.it is saposed to e cooled by the coolant.

 

they are for breast feeding

 

It's for cooling the automatic transmission. If you have a 5spd then don't worry about them, they carry no pressure in them. My friend had this same concern. I don't know if you have to cap them or not.

 

I need to know if I need to cap them. Im doing a auto to manny conversion and I noticed them today.. to cap or not... oh hell imma cap them anyway

 

no need to cap them, its not like they cary any fluid

 

nope no reason to, it just carrys atf from one side to the other like a giant straw.

 

they are for an auto trans cooler. they arent used in a manual application. they keep costs down by making one that fits all.

*EDIT* damn typos
