Radiator how about a compatiable radiator for a 98 crv when getting a used one. Does the 2002 accord interchange,,,,will any other vehicle?

these radiators are made from aluminum and hole easily while removing and fitting
the plastic ends break at the hose connection

no other vehicle makers radiators are an option for you
has to be a radiator from a 1997-2004Mitsubishi diamante.

a few options for you
if money is tight
you can source a used radiator from a car wrecking /junk yard
for less than half price of a new one
ring some local places close to you and ask
you might be lucky
some cars may have had a recent radiator replacement before being scrapped

if it is only holes
they can repaired for very little cost

another possible
the plastic ends are removed if not broken
a new core can be fitted

try ebay for prices on a new one

What makes you think that these motors were interchangeable?
Did you modify anything to make it fit?

Well it depends.
According to the parts book, there is a before and after 4/97 version.
Some cover 96-98 models, and some don't.
Part of the difference is where the radiator hoses are located.
I think one is a half inch wider/taller than the other too.

Must be one for the same engine size and year range they were produced in that design. Best to get the one designed for the vehicle. Lot cheaper on Ebay

Not too hard to do, but make sure you get the part for the right year.

it can be from many years,and even from different model vehicles. on the neon,all that mattes is that you get one from an engine that is the same size as yours.
i get this question alot...and its amazing that so manydifferent vehicle parts interchange.
look at the mitsubishi eclipse....all the parts on that models engine interchange with chevy products!!!!

check your wiring for dirty connections or broken wires, you may have wires that are rubbed through or connectors that are not making full contact. you will need an ohm meter and check wires for continuity. a wiring diagram will be needed.

best way to find out... is to phone autozone or a specialty store and have them look up the part numbers for each. even better is to call your local junk/recycling/wrecking yard as i believe they would have a set of books listing interchangable parts on different models... the coil pack on my windstar van is the same they use in the toyota model.
