I was wondering is someone could tell me if a radiator from an Automatic 1993 MX3 1.8L will fit an 1993 1.8L manual transmission Mx3?
Thanks in advance. :?:

Thanks guys!

But now I also notice a sort of smaller radiator in front of a bigger radiator does anyone know what it is cuz now I'm wondering if it may be leaking fron that one.

that smaller "radiator" in front of the radiator is the condenser for the A/C.

Ok so there could be coolant leaking from there. Is that right?
OR is that absurd? because it's refrigerant and there shouldn't be any coolant in there?
I just have to know
Thanks

I'm hoping someone could confirm the previous statement so I could get started with the replacement right that instant.
thank you!

A/C goes psssssshhhhhht! when its leaking, maybe the coolant is coming from somewhere else and dripping onto the a/c condenser? overflow bottle perhaps?

Thanks guys!
It was actually the rad behind the condenser shooting a spray of coolant straight forward through the condenser so it looked like it was leaking from there. So all is fixed now.
The radiator for automatic trans looked a little different but with parts from the old one it fitted the manual trans no problem.
Thanks again all.
