CSF 3004 Radiator

CSF 3004 Radiator Overview

The CSF 3004 is an OE-style radiator built with a plastic tank and aluminum core for dependable engine cooling. It is engineered for vehicles that use a down-flow layout with left-side inlet and right-side outlet connections, making it a direct replacement choice for select applications such as Suzuki models that use this configuration.

CSF’s 1 Row Plastic Tank Aluminum Core line focuses on factory-style fit and thermal efficiency. The CSF 3004 follows that approach with a 1-row aluminum core, plastic end tanks, and dimensions that match the original cooling system layout for accurate replacement service.

Detailed Description

Built for cooling-system replacement service, the CSF 3004 radiator uses an aluminum core for efficient heat transfer and plastic tanks for a factory-style configuration. The down-flow layout, inlet and outlet placement, and overall core dimensions are designed to match the original radiator architecture used in select vehicles. This makes the CSF 3004 a practical choice for drivers and technicians replacing a worn or leaking radiator on compatible Suzuki applications.

CSF manufactures radiators to high-performance standards and validates designs through laboratory wind-tunnel testing. The brand’s long-running radiator program includes a wide range of OE-style replacements, and the CSF 3004 reflects that focus on consistent cooling performance and dimensional accuracy. This part cross-references Spectra Premium CU2451 and OSC 2451 for the same application.

What It Helps Address

• Coolant leaks from cracked or aged radiator tanks
• Overheating caused by reduced heat dissipation
• Restricted coolant flow from a deteriorated radiator core
• Cooling-system service needs on select Suzuki radiator applications
• Replacement of a damaged OE-style down-flow radiator

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify inlet and outlet orientation before installation: the CSF 3004 uses a left-side inlet and right-side outlet. Confirm core dimensions, down-flow layout, and oil cooler configuration against the original unit before ordering. For best results, inspect hoses, clamps, and coolant condition during radiator replacement, and flush the system if contamination or corrosion is present.

Quality Assurance

CSF states that its factories are ISO/TSO certified and that its radiators are engineered and tested for cooling performance validation. The CSF 3004 is built as an OE-style replacement radiator for consistent fit and function in the intended application.
