Installation Notes and Tips

When installing the Universal Air RA1912C radiator, ensure the vehicle is fully cooled before beginning work. Drain the existing coolant and carefully remove the old radiator, noting hose and mounting locations. Verify the downflow orientation matches the original part to maintain proper coolant flow. Reconnect all hoses and fittings securely, refill with the appropriate coolant, and bleed the system to remove air pockets. Testing for leaks and proper engine temperature after installation is recommended.
