Q: How do you remove the radiator on Ford Explorer?
A: If you want to remove the radiator, then you should disconnect the negative battery cable and remove the air cleaner duct. Drain the cooling system and pull off the radiator hoses from their connections. Disconnect the reservoir hose from the radiator filler neck. Remove the fan shroud and disconnect transmission cooler lines if equipped. Remove the bolts that hold up the radiator and take out any clips retaining the condenser. Gently lift away from its lower mounts without spilling coolant or causing damage to anything else on your car; this will allow you access it more easily should something break while doing so (like bending metal). Inspect for leaks and damages when taking out a radiator. To begin, check that all parts are included and arrange them as they were before removal. Also, refill with water, test for leaks, and keep watch over upper radiator hose for temperature indication too. For vehicles with automatic transmissions, monitor levels in addition to adding fluid if necessary.
