I swapped a manual motor into my automatic civic and there are 2 hoses that comes from the radiator that use to go to the automatic's tranny...what do i do with these two hoses becuase i cant plug it in on the manaul tranny.

 

If I remember correctly just remove them, and it will be fine. It will not leak. Someone correct me if I'm wrong its been a while.

 

tranmission cooler.
just remove the hoses and drain the remaining fluid,

 

Is it safe to not have a transmission cooler?

 

It's safe becuase a manual tranny doesn't heat up like a propane space heater like a automatic one does.

 

I was planning to use that portion of the radiator as an oil cooler on mine.

 

i just cut my hoses off short....too lazy to pull um off, poo poo was too hard .....yea yea wesk sauce

 

ok

 

I *WOULD NOT* use that small line for an oil cooler. It will not carry enough oil to supply the engine.
The only way I would use it to cool oil was if I had a turbo. Run the return line through there first, then back to the oil pan. But that is the ONLY way.
My oil filter/cooler setup uses 1/2 line.

 

i was thinking of that also
