Review on 🌡️ Denso 221-3120 Radiator: Efficient Cooling for Optimal Engine Performance by Andrew Lyons

I installed this on my daughter's 2002 Lexus IS300. I was concerned about the comments made by others about the temperature sensor. My regular temperature sensor fit in the hole with no problem. My OEM sensor had an internal o-ring but there was nothing on the mating surface. I removed the rubber gasket from the cap on the radiator and attached it to the temp sensor. I wrapped a can of heavy duty Teflon tape (grey) just in case. I unscrewed it and checked for leaks. No leaks. My radiator fan fit, but the mounting holes were slightly misaligned. I was able to smooth it out without much effort. It was easy to install. I got a new radiator cap and this radiator already had a drain plug installed. The exact same radiator was more than double the price at my local auto parts store and they didn't have it in stock. For the price, it's better than trying to patch a cracked plastic radiator cap or pouring some kind of leak into your system and risking clogging your heater core. The only tools you will need are a 10mm socket, an extension bar to remove the air filter, pliers to remove clamps and a bucket to catch the liquid.
