Installation Notes and Tips
When installing the CSF 3338 radiator, ensure the inlet and outlet connections match the vehicle’s hose diameters (1 1/4 inch inlet and 1 5/16 inch outlet on the left side). The radiator does not include a cap, so use the compatible CSF cap number 4514 or the original equipment manufacturer’s cap. Verify the down flow orientation during installation to maintain proper coolant flow. The quick-connect plastic tanks facilitate easier hose attachment but inspect all connections for secure fitment to prevent leaks.
