240 Radiator Replacement 1st Time - 5 speed 200 1990

posted by  someone claiming to be Tom on  Tue May 21 05:31 CST 2002 [RELATED]

I'm going to replace my radiator this weekend, and would like some help.

I purchased a new Volvo radiator that is still in the box. Since the car is a 5-speed, is there a plug on the radiator that I need to remove? If so, where is it?

Do I need any socket extensions or are there any special tricks?

What hoses do I remove first...Does the coolant drain from the drain hole on the engine block?

If anyone has good step-by-step instructions, let me know.

Thanks.
