You might want to go ahead and empty the whole cooling system as best as
possible before doing the job, just so that you don't loose all your coolant
(assuming it doesn't need to be replaced due to age anyway). I hear great
things about sucking it all out with a wet/dry shopvac from the coolant
bottle in the engine bay, and then when you're done....just shoot it right
back in. That could eliminate some of the weight of the radiator. David's
right, it will weigh alot more than you think it should, and no matter how
hard you try, there's always enough coolant left in the system to run down
your arm. Don't forget you're lab googles! Coolant in the eyes (or mouth for
that matter) is less than pleasant.
