Just wondering how hard it is to replace the ast? if anyone has a link for directions for this i would really appreciate it.
|
On a scale from 1-10 with 10 being the more difficult. I would say its a 2. You just take off the old one and swap in the new one.
|
It's a sinch.. Obviously prepare to get a little coolant on you.
|
unplug the hoses 1 by 1, and plug it to the corresponding holes on the new AST.
and yes, prepare some coolang cuz you will spill some |
Oh and anytime you lose any coolant even if it seems so minimal that it couldn't possibly do any damage, put some new coolant in. I lost about a pint of coolant changing mine, and I like an idiot I started the engine without adding any coolant and the red light of death came on, and the coolant buzzer started screaming. I added a little bit, and it was fine.

thanks guys, i knew it was simple but i didnt think it it was that easy.
|
Just to spice this thread up a bit, IT'S HORRIBLY HARD TO SWAP IN A NEW AST, PREPARE FOR PAIN.
|
yea my buddy lost his left leg swapping an AST. i suggest u be very careful.
do what martin said one hose at a time. id suggest pinching the bottom line off a little below the end to prevent gushing coolant but the stuff already in the tank is gonna leak out |
thanks mike
