Radiator loking thingy...?

[Rookie_ca18]

Ummm... you know that radiator looking thing that sit in front of the radiator and it has A/C lines running to it, do i remove that or leave it? Do I need it if I wanna keep my A/C? Sorry if this seems like a silly question. THANKS! !

ok thats what i figured thanks.

Well i dont have one and mine ran fine... but i do have a silver cylinder looking thing behind the radiator.. is that my condenser?

[NeedCAforS13]

what? no... thats another component of the A/C system, and you need that too, but you NEED the condensor for the A/C system to work are you sure you don't have the condensor?

AC condensor looks like a mini-radiator in front of the normal radiator... in fact it IS a radiator, but for the AC

ill go look again in a sec but im pretty sure i dont... im going to put my oil cooler in front of the radiator when i get around to it and i dont remember seeing anything in the way. Speaking of getting around to stuff.. any one know if i can get a 2.25 inch 90 degree pipe at any local shop/autozone type place in kennesaw/atlanta?

well you wont see it cause its the same size ac the radiator. dont just disconect your lines either, its a federal crime to dump refrigerent into the atmosphere. you get a 25,000 fine, and i get a 15,000 dollar reward for turning you in . not to mention if your hands in the way you can get frostbite from the escaping refrigerent.

A bit off topic but the 02 sensor on my mani does not have a plug but three wires with like plastic buds over this small skinny cylinder looking thing (god I hope this makes sense) could I some how wire a 02 plug to it or would I need a whole new sensor. Oh and is the z32 sensor the same I think I remember reading that somewhere but I could be wrong. THanks.I'll try to get some pics of it and everything else tomorrow, hopefully someone could help me post em.

sounds like someone either melted your wires, or just cut them... there should be a plug attached to that cylinder thing (your o2 sensor)... just get a new one, I think z32 is correct!

lol yeah the cylinder thingy is the 02 sensor i meant to say that at the end of each of the wires it looks like 3 little plastic cylinder plugs. I think pics would really help but yeah ill just get the z32 one to be safe.

I bet someone had an A/F gauge on there, and those were his connectors he used:)

You know what that would make sense since the turbo is tapped with some sort of probe i guess for an exhaust temp gauge anyway like i said ill try and take some pics if i can get a hold of my cousin, if not ill just get a disposable camera and take some pics.
