• Fitment issues after replacing a damaged factory radiator

Installation Notes and Tips

Confirm radiator dimensions, inlet and outlet sizes, and transmission cooler routing before installation. Part number 1494 is built for drop-in fit, form, and function, and the factory-style layout helps simplify replacement on 1994-1997 Honda Accord, 1997-2001 Honda Prelude, and 1997-1999 Acura CL applications. Inspect hoses, clamps, and mounting points during service to help ensure a proper seal and stable installation.

Quality Assurance

OSC states that each radiator is pressure tested during production, with cooler circuits checked before tank installation and again after final assembly. The design also incorporates engineering updates aimed at improving durability and cooling performance over original failure points.
