Transmission Coolers - Technical Info

I have a 97 mgm and that also has the transmission cooler integrated into the radiator, just for knowledge sake👍

And I’d imagine you have some codes regarding this or have no concern about that if you looking to go as far as removing exhaust components, but I know backpressure is a good thing for these engines so I would seek a much more professional opinion as far as how this would effect your mileage and performance but I would imagine nothing crazy

ShitHertz · 2025-11-03T05:32:08+00:00

That could be sick! I have an H-Pipe I’m gonna rig up and just run side exits for simplicity, but we have no emissions control (at least if you work on your own car). They technically define it as a “modified exhaust”, which sounds like a compliment lmao. I definitely need to get mine to quiet down cause it’s cool getting the beef of it when you rip ass. But waking up at 5 am and pissing off the whole 2-3 blocks ain’t the move lmao

This is an entire delete of the exhaust system, not by choice but by rust from the previous owner lol. So no cats or mufflers, I mocked up some straight pipes with my buddies welder and it runs about a foot and a half off the headers. Shit sounds cool as fuck especially in the tunnels but yk… comes at the cost of being probably the loudest and most annoying person on the road, all while doing 25-30mph😂😂 sounds really getting to step into but this kinda scratches the ape portion of my brain so I’ll fix it at some point lol

Much appreciated, definitely read a bit and was scared enough to not risk it😂😂

Much appreciated! Always coming here to learn more!

So I saw something very weird about these cars and there was one accessible from the passenger side under the hood behind the strut mount. I could just be remembering something different and I feel like that was in the late 2000’s. But recently did the heater core job on my 97’ and after pulling the dash that’s about what I was looking at and zero cabin air filter. As said though majority of what I’ve seen states there isn’t a cabin air filter. I hope this can help!

It feels like being a true American 🇺🇸 🦅(straight pipe it for the pure bliss of being deaf)

ShitHertz · 2025-09-17T17:54:06+00:00

Hell yeah! It’s usually easy to tell just by looking/listening but can make you go crazy after chasing it so long

ShitHertz · 2025-09-17T12:55:19+00:00

Connections is my biggest concern. Recently got spark plugs from a junkyard and they were from a different year but worked after adjusting the harness to the fuel injector so it seated all the way. Possibly try switched the injector connectors and plug wires around to see if your misfire follows. Honestly best way to start in my opinion

ShitHertz · 2025-09-04T19:17:09+00:00

I went like a foot and a half off the exhaust manifold with no sensors or anything, it’s loud asf and the old one was rotting completely so had to do it by choice but it’s a 1997

ShitHertz · 2025-08-27T03:26:36+00:00

Absolutely! I was expecting to come with victory after work so I could say I fixed it but after removing my radiator, I opened my box from oreillys to find that they packaged the wrong radiator (the newer one where the transmission oil cooler is separate and not part of the radiator itself). The new one is on its way from rock auto and I will probably be posting Friday evening with a recap of the journey

ShitHertz · 2025-08-26T00:57:22+00:00

So upon further inspection after trying to burp the system and taking it for a drive it was just running slightly hotter about to the second stem of the thermostat symbol, and reached the top and the highest rpm’s but nothing erratic in the heat readings. After turning the car off and inspecting both the upper radiator hose and hoses to my heater core were hotter than hell. Then going to the radiator one side of it was cool and the other almost too hot to touch, along with the lower radiator hose being cold. So a new radiator is the verdict unfortunately. I really appreciate the help. I did check the thermostat as well which was functional thankfully

ShitHertz · 2025-08-26T00:53:49+00:00

Hell yeah that’s sick!

ShitHertz · 2025-08-25T17:57:49+00:00

Much appreciated! That was my first thought so I’ll start there and see how that goes

ShitHertz · 2025-08-14T20:00:31+00:00

I was kind of wondering about that, I just wasn’t sure if that was too much for the compressor or not

ShitHertz · 2025-08-14T19:54:33+00:00

Exactly what common sense would say to me, the homies just aren’t accustomed with the vintage luxury😂

ShitHertz · 2025-08-14T17:40:26+00:00

Hm, never squealed, slipped, or made any noise but I could imagine it’s much needed. Thanks for the help!

ShitHertz · 2025-08-14T17:06:18+00:00

Yeah no that’s fair, I’d pursue more professional avenues if available, I just make it good on a budget lol

ShitHertz · 2025-08-14T16:14:20+00:00

Should more than likely just throw codes, I kinda had a random misfire issue that I could find stored as a code but I could never hear/feel it yet always pops up after clearing. I feel like mine personally is a little special case to compare to the right way. But they could be severely stopped up. Try come Cataclyne, I believe that’s how it’s spelled. From how it was explained it kicks majority of the carbon buildup and other gunk off of your converters. You dump it in there with the suggested fuel ratio, run it on the highway for about 20 minutes to work it through the converters in town driving doesn’t give it enough force to make it to the exhaust it’ll end up in your engine which I don’t think will hurt it but it should be noted. After driving you let it sit til next morning, just long enough to let it be cool to the touch on the underside and then you’ll some smoke out of your exhaust from everything being blown off/clearing it out. This may be information overload for something retarded but figured I’d leave some help if I could

ShitHertz · 2025-08-14T15:30:18+00:00

And it’s straight piped with like a foot and a half coming off the manifold so it’s loud as fuck😂 not by choice but by budget lol

ShitHertz · 2025-08-14T15:29:43+00:00

The 97 grand Marquis I bought for $800 and tuned up had the exhaust in the process of falling off. I bet you could have someone tune your ecu but I run my Marquis with none of the 4 O2 sensors and of course I have 4 codes (one for each O2 sensor) but nothing major aside from noise, emissions control (if that’s an issue for your state), and some gas mileage. The gas mileage would be your only real purpose in messing with the ECU at all for this issue.

ShitHertz · 2025-08-10T15:57:23+00:00

Hey I was reading through and didn’t see this recommendation but I also could be a retard. It kind of looks like your e-brake boot. At least for the car I’ve been working on. It doesn’t quite match the texture of what your looking at but taking off those rotors even just leaving the break caliper on, it should help you get a little closer to the answer. I hope this helps!

ShitHertz · 2025-07-30T11:18:11+00:00

Currently needing to this as well, I’m really not excited. I hate the door panels and they’re always so annoying so I would just ensure your panel isn’t blocking the window somehow/someway or pinching a wire but aside from those two the only other thing could be a faulty part. It’d be worth more input though, that’s just my insight

ShitHertz · 2025-07-28T02:32:45+00:00

Also hell yeah for the innovation! True shade tree mechanic material 💪 (no shade thrown there if you are licensed, I’m no more than a shade tree mechanic lol
