Capping rad. lines
I just got a new radiator for my hatch but it has the a/t cooling lines on it. What's the best way to cap these off? I thought about just running a hose to connect them but thought there might be a better way. Thanks, in advance.

i dont think you need to. i know for sure on the older chevys you dont cause its the atf that runs through the radiator since there is no atf going through it nothing will leak out. not sure if its the same for a honda but try filling it with water and see if it leaks out.

Honda is the same - ATF is all that goes thru those lines, no coolant - just leave them
