I accidentally got the wrong radiator from advanced auto parts, it all lines up with my transmission and coolant hoses. Unfortunately, the radiator has a hole on each side that doesn’t line up with anything on my truck. Do I need to plug them up? Will it shoot out transmission fluid or coolant? Any advice or ideas appreciated
I mean personally sounds like you got the wrong radiator if there’s 2 holes with nothing attached, if those holes are actually holes and not just extra plastic from the mold, water will shot out and you’ll lose all the water within a few minutes, radiators are pressurized due to steam, once it starts the waterpump will shoot alot of it out and once steam builds the rest will follow, I’d pull it and take it back for the correct part, don’t be afraid to open it in store make sure it’s the correct fit.
