Installation Notes and Tips

When installing the CSF 3594 radiator, ensure the inlet and outlet hose connections match the 1 3/8 inch diameter specifications on the right and left sides respectively. Verify the cross flow orientation aligns with the vehicle’s cooling system layout. Since the radiator does not include a cap, reuse the existing cap or source a compatible replacement separately. Handle the aluminum core carefully to avoid damage during installation.
