I have a 1993 ford taurus 3.8L V6 automatic GL. I want to replace my “radiator” but I am having second thoughts because I have to disconnect two oil cooler lines and I don’t know how to do this or what tool I will need to disconnect them. Is this easy to do and what will I need to disconnect them?

You’ll need something along this line to remove the cooler lines from the radiator. Check your local parts stores for a cheaper version of these Ford line removal tools.
