I got a 2002 civic with a cracked radiator so i need to buy a new one but i was looking at the prices the cheapest is $60 the most expensive is $200+.What is the difference?The cheap one is made in taiwan for an aluminum core radiator is that bad?
makes a few burnt bored toast, a high-quality sizzling cup of bored teaStick on a humdrum video, stroke the bored cat then hop upstairs in your bored mattress and get a few high-quality bored close-eyeYou wont be bored in case your asleep.
I'm still waiting for your punch line Candice! You told us where the cheap radiator is made but you didn't tell us the brand name! Also, what kind of news do you have (make, of rows width of cooling tubes) on the $200.00 radiatorAll inexpensive radiators have aluminum cooling tubes and finns with cheap plastic end tanks on the ends of the cooling tubesThere's a little secret in selecting a replacement radiatorLay your old original one on a flat surface and count the number of cooling tubes from the top downUsing a tape measure carefully measure the overall width of just one of the cooling tubesJot these figures downWhen you go radiator shopping, make darn sure the new radiator has at least the same number of cross cooling tubes and sneak a thin tape measure in the new radiator to make sure the width of the cooling tubes is no narrower than your old radiatorCheap replacements occasionally do not have the same cooling capacity as the old one didIt's perfectly fine if the cooling tubes are wider on the new radiator but don't buy it if the cross cooling tubes are narrowerHave fun shopping Kido! I had to chuckle at Roy's remarksAluminum is a metal and they cool better than more expensive, old fashoned brass or copper radiatorsThe hottest race-cars in the world all have aluminum cores with aluminum end tanksAluminum is stronger than copper!
