XJS V12 Overheating Question
#41
![Default](/forum/images/icons/icon1.gif)
If all the pipes and hoses, and the flat metal piece across the top are removed there shouldn't be anything (like bolts) left holding it in, the radiator is just located on the bottom by two pins that go into rubber grommets ... but, the foam around the sides and bottom, and the grommets are probably pretty well bonded to the radiator and body of the car, and the radiator itself is fairly heavy. I don't remember exactly what I had to do other than lift and pull, maybe try to rock it from side to side also. I did put sheets of cardboard on both sides of the rad before removing, to try to protect it since, as you noticed, it's very crowded in there. Also some moving pads/blankets on top of the engine.
I was able to get mine out by myself, but it would probably be easier with someone on each side of the car.
Hope this helps! Eric
