Evercool radiator or taiwan radiator?

**bail** · May 29th, 2017 09:20 PM

Guys ano mas ok between the 2? and should it be copper or plastic? Im about to replace my old radiator na kasi since na overhaul na to dati and lately lagi na nagooverheat car ko and pansin ko may mga rust particles na rin sa loob everytime I open the radiator cap. Its for my corolla 1997 gli. How much din ang labor for radiator replacement? and can you recommend a good shop? im in pasig/marikina area.

Im using taiwan plastic 2rows sa 92 corolla. 4yrs na ata wala naman problem. Kunin mo 2rows mas marami tubig at mas malamig engine. Mas mahaba nga lang warm up mo.

I would always prefer copper or metal radiators than plastics. Metals will even outlast your car if well taken good care of. First, do not use tap water as this is always the source of rust and mineral deposits. Always use distilled water mixed with a good brand of anti-rust, anti-boil radiator coolant.

Hope it helps.

Mas gusto ko din copper radiators dahil pwede siya ipagawa sa tabi tabi in case magka-leak.
Kung brand new ilalagay mo, palagay ko hindi aabutin ng isang oras ang pagkabit niyan. Kung DIY guy ka, madali lang yun.

Sa mga nababasa ko, okay naman Evercool radiators.

There is a reason bakit plastic top and bottom ang stock radiator. In the event of clogged radiator and mag overheat and sasakyan, puputok ang plastic para ma relieve ang pressure instead na ang engine head mo ang mag suffer which is mas costly kesa magpalit ka ng radiator. So nothing wrong with a plastic top radiator. Tatagal naman ang plastic radiator, iwasan mo lang buhusan ng tubig lalo na pag mainit ang makina kasi lulutong.

plastic, aluminum and copper radiators, all have their advantages and disadvantages. google them, po.
the advantage of the plastic radiator, is its cheaper cost of manufacture. yun lang.

pressure overload? relief is via the radiator's relief valves or the radiator cap's pressure release mechanism.

isn't evercool locally manufactured? buy it, if one has to buy a new one. it's good for the economy.

Evercool radiators are made of what material? copper din ba?

**ice15** · May 30th, 2017 05:05 PM

A radiator guy (kanto kanto lang) installed a copper 4 rows radiator sa small body namin noon... Nag fit naman kaso maiskip...

I personally prefer copper kasi pwede gawin kahit saan... Nabasagan dati ako ng plastic radiator sa North and epoxy steel lang solution na binigay sa akin ng mechanic na nakita ko

What do you mean by "rows"?

**baludoy** · May 30th, 2017 05:34 PM

ok evercool. iyan ang replacement na ginamit ko dati sa ek namin. tumaggal hanggang nabenta na lang din iyong kotse

copper ang material na ginamit nila tapos ang factory nila sa laguna

it's not the cheapest around but it's pretty durable if maintained properly
