I just got my old radiator out and putting new one in. The new one is a modine one. My question is it has ports for the automatic transmission fluid cooling at the bottom. Mine is manual so I don't have anything to hook up! Those little tubes point upward. I have no plugs to plug up the holes in them.

I called napa and the guy said its ok to just leave them open as nothing would come out. Should i try to make something to plug them up or just leave them as he says? I just don't want coolant gushing out down the road!

Thanks for any reply!!!!

 

ya go ahead and leave them open. the two ports are for the transmission fluid going in and out. coolent never comes in or out of those ports. yo are ok.

 

modine (since pops works for em)

 

has anyone tried using the tranny cooler for an oil cooler?
