This is the ‘short version’ of the Acura Vigor Radiator Replacement video. It has been edited down for time and has less detail than the long version burt still covers the basics of radiator installation on an Acura Vigor. Since they only made these for 3 years, the process is the same for all 3 years. In fact this video will also work for the 95-98 Acura 2.5TL. The process is pretty straightforward and well within the capability of the DIY. There are quite a few harness connections and mounts that can make the job challenging however. With the methods shown in the video this shouldn’t be much of an issue.
Here’s a link to the Long Version:
