Just got a '97 GLT Turbo,Automatic, from someone to work on, needs a new radiator.

The oil line at the neck in the radiator cracked, oil and coolant is mixed everywhere!. I already got the rad out, need a new one now gonna try the Junk yard, but to often I get a better deal on Ebay.

Its a auto and a turbo, glt model. There are different ones aviable...would this work?

93-04 VOLVO 850 C70 S70 V70 TURBO MT OEM STYLE RADIATOR | eBay

Anything elses I need to replace other than clamps and fluids?
Also Im still on a budget, Ebay is much cheaper then Advance, OReilly, or Pep Boys (Etc) Any advice from what has been baught by any of you?I just dont want to get the wrong radiator, after I open it and cant return it lol.
Thanks!!!

 

Yes, you should be able to get eBay radiators for < $100. Try Craigslist too, some people sell Spectra radiators on CL. You should also replace the clamps on the oil cooler and transm lines. Coolant should be G-05. NApa carries it (brand is Zerex), plus mix it with distilled water from the supermarket for a 50/50 mixture.

Rubber hoses should be replaced too, and thermostat. That should be another $ 20.

 

My concern was though it said "Manual Transmission" I have an Auto, As does almost everyone. Is there a difference such as the Stick not having a tranny cooler? or is it just in/out in a different place?

 

This will work.

 

Thanks!, I figure I'll just go to service dep. to get the replacement tubs and what not I need.

 

Don't forget to get new "O" rings for the oil cooler and trans cooler lines. Getting the clips is good but if you don't do the O rings you might regret it sooner than later when it starts leaking.

Usually for lower production cars the radiators all come with the transmission cooler. That way it fits both, you just leave the plugs in it if you have a stick.
BUT ---> Because it's cheaper to leave it out and you mention that the ad said "stick" I'd check with the seller to make sure the one you buy has booth coolers.
