    What are these fittings on the radiator?

    I had to remove my radiator today. As I was unplugging everything I noticed 2 steel screw on fittings on the drivers side. There was some oily residue that
    came out when I unscrewed them. Is there supposed to be oil(it looked like oil but could have been something else) in there?

    Every other bit of my coolant was clean. No oil/coolant mixture. Just these 2 steel fittings had oily mixture.

    I'm guessing your car is a manual, and that is propobly a automatic rad. that those fittings was in.

            -Did the two fittings have metal lines running to them? Those are ATF cooler lines. Was the fluid not rosy-red? If not, it's time for a tranny flush!

              No need to cover them up, I didn't bother.
