Dumb question but here goes.
Do the trans lines just push in to the nut with out removing the spring clip an then you tighten up the nut, or snug up the nut before pushing in the line.
thanks for any feed back.

 

I don't mess with the nutz. ... lol! I know that sounds wrong. But just push line in.

I think the nuts hold the cooler in position. The lines snap in.

 

thank you

Do not mess with the nuts.

You have to pry the clips out/off to pull the current line out. You can then push the new line in and put the clip back. Sometimes trying to push the new line in with the clip already in place doesn't work quite as easy as one would think, sometimes the line just snaps in perfect. Just do it whichever way makes it happen.

 

thank you, the nuts were all ready loose in the new radiator, So I snugged them up and the lines snapped right in.

 

I just had to replace both nuts...The orings were wore out and where the clips go was damaged. Figured that's where the leak was coming from. Will know tomorrow.
