Detailed Product Description

The Spectra 2001-1710P radiator features a 2-row aluminum core measuring 36 inches in height, 38.5 inches in width, and 1.875 inches thick, providing a balance of cooling capacity and compact design. The crossflow flow orientation enhances coolant circulation by directing flow horizontally across the core, improving heat exchange efficiency. The plastic tanks reduce overall weight and resist corrosion, contributing to the radiator's longevity. Both the inlet and outlet have a 2.5-inch diameter, positioned at the upper left and lower right respectively, facilitating straightforward hose connections. This radiator is supplied with a hardware kit containing 12 retaining clips and 12 pins to assist with secure installation.

Common Applications and Issues Addressed

• Replacement for overheating problems due to radiator core damage or clogging
• Restores cooling system efficiency in vehicles experiencing coolant leaks
• Suitable for vehicles requiring a crossflow radiator with specific inlet/outlet locations
• Addresses reduced engine performance caused by inadequate heat dissipation
• Ideal for vehicles needing a radiator with plastic tanks and aluminum core construction

Installation Notes and Tips

Ensure compatibility with your vehicle’s make and model before installation. The crossflow design requires proper alignment of the upper left inlet and lower right outlet hoses. Use the included mounting hardware kit with 12 retaining clips and pins to secure the radiator firmly. Inspect all hose connections and clamps for tightness to prevent leaks. It is recommended to flush the cooling system before installing the new radiator to remove debris and contaminants.
