Is there any such cheap radiator for a 1997 S10? Gm has it for $155. Any thing else?

 

Thats actually a very good price for a brand new one. You can buy them slightly chaeper on the internet, but by the time you pay shipping, it'll be about $10 more.

 

Here is a link to some OEM and aftermarket replacements, they range between $140 to $250. The GM price really is good considering you will not have to pay shipping costs, so if I were you that is the way I would go.

RADIATORS

 

speaking of - is there a good set of instructions anywhere on replacing a radiator on an S-10?

 

Theres nothing to it. Just pull off the shroud (clips) the fan (4 small screws). Drain it by disconnecting the hoses. Then unbolt the radiator from the support (4 screws I think). Work it side to side until it comes out.
