Product Details

TYC Radiator 1609 is engineered for Ford Windstar cooling system service where a replacement radiator with transmission fluid cooling is required. The aluminum core, single-row layout, and crossflow flow configuration support heat dissipation in everyday driving conditions. This radiator is a practical OE-style replacement for 1995, 1996, 1997, and 1998 Ford Windstar applications, and it cross-references Ford F78Z 8005 AA and Spectra Premium CU1609 for the same application.

TYC Radiator is the brand line for TYC cooling components, and this part follows that product focus with application-specific fitment and integrated cooler provisions for automatic transmission setups.

What It Helps Address

  • Overheating caused by a worn or leaking radiator
  • Transmission fluid temperature control issues tied to radiator cooler failure
  • Coolant loss from cracked or corroded radiator components
  • Poor heat exchange from a restricted or damaged core
  • Fitment problems when replacing the original Ford Windstar radiator

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify inlet and outlet hose sizes, cooler line connection style, and core dimensions before installation. This radiator uses hose clamp inlet and outlet connections and tube-fitting transmission cooler ports, so matching the original routing and line style is important. Flush the cooling system and inspect hoses, clamps, and related seals before installing the replacement radiator in a Ford Windstar.

Quality Assurance

TYC manufactures this radiator as an application-specific replacement for 1995-1998 Ford Windstar models, with integrated transmission oil cooler provisions and OE-style connection points for proper fitment.
