Removing the radiator on my 98 Deville removed bolt on 2 line aluminum distribution block accidentally not realizing it was under pressure. Can I repressurize this (condensor?) myself in vehicle?

non engine told
it just unscrews, my guess you meant can't find it.?
but not telling engine there how can there be any answer
no VIN told or country.
you meant FORD Five HUNDRED, that is not any 500) sorry, not.
2005 to 2007 made sure.
the wiki on Five HUNDRED ,says the engine USA is.

3.0 L Duratec 30 V6 205 hp (153 kW)
aluminum engine block and aluminum DOHC cylinder heads. The cylinders are lined with cast iron
bingo that is it. (engine found) USA answers me, only.
I will now read your service manual to you.

see photo below
now the words for REMOVE

With the vehicle in NEUTRAL, position it on a hoist. For additional information, refer to Jacking and Lifting.

Remove cooling fan motor and shroud. For additional information, refer to Engine Cooling.

Remove the lower radiator splash shield.

Remove the accessory drive belt. For additional information, refer to Accessory Drive.

Disconnect the A/C compressor electrical connector and wiring harness retainer.(not hoses ever)

Remove the 2 bolts, 2 nuts and position the A/C compressor aside.

To install, tighten to 25 Nm (18 lb-ft).

Remove the 6 bolts and position the A/C compressor bracket aside.

To install, tighten to 25 Nm (18 lb-ft).

Disconnect the oil pressure sender electrical connector.

Remove the oil pressure sender.

To install, tighten to 14 Nm (10 lb-ft)

Pay? for it?

Head gaskets.Nortstar engines use soft metal aluminum block, so over time heat and pressure makes the head bolts pull from the block. Not a easy fix. Drive train must be removed, head bolt holes drilled out. Do a block test on it for exhaust in coolant. Repairs run from $2500-$5500. Gud luc

this starter should have 2 bolts , One long and one short , traveling up into the block, the long one goes through a large block of aluminum on the starter, and the short one is on a tab Both should be easily visible from under the car . , be sure and unhook the positive battery cable prior to starter removal,

The northstar engine has head bolt issues, test for exhaust in the cooling system. What happens is under load compression gasses get pushed into the cooling system, and that pushes coolant out....
One clue is the loss of heater temp.
This is extremely expensive to fix, as you need to totally disassemble and put block on machinists bench for new head bolt threads in the aluminum block...
Replacement of head gaskets will only be short term fix.

Unfortunately you may not like the answer. The manuals cal for you to take the entire front end apart, including the bumper. I'll tell you, you will have to take the front end almost apart. Start by removing the battery, negative post first as this is necessary to the airbag sensors. Remove the battery and the tray. Next remove the electrical power distribution box and lay it aside. mark and remove the hood latch so you can line it back up on the install. Now there are several bolts to remove across the radiator shroud brace remove them and note the different lenghts so you can return them on re-installation. drain the radiator and remove the hoses top right and bottom left. If you have an automatic transmission you will need a special tool to remove the lines (found at your local parts stores). On the bottom of the vehicle you will need to have removed the protection shroud. once you have the lines and hoses disconnected you will need to remove the headlight assemblies by the bolts and not the adjustment rods. there you will find behind them a plug disconnect for your airbag sensors on the right and the left as well as two bolts on each side remaining in the shroud. remove the shroud by pulling up and to one side or the other while pulling out on the bumper at the top. after this there will be two brackets at the bottom to remove the radiator. The radiator will come out through the bottom of the car. To continue with removing the a/c radiator (condenser coil), using the same style tool for removing the transmission lines, disconnect the lines and remove it as well. Remember though to have the freon properly drained if the system is still charged as the intense pressure can cause injury when taking the lines apart. Installation is the reverse of the dis-assembly.

Radiator - Removal & Installation

1. Disconnect the negative battery cable.
   CAUTION Do not remove the radiator cap or drain with the cooling system hot and under pressure or serious personal injury can occur from hot pressurized coolant.
2. Place a drain pan under the radiator drain. Open the radiator drain plug and allow the coolant to drain.
3. Remove the air intake resonator from the air cleaner assembly.
   
   
   Fig. Before removing the hood latch, mark its location on the crossmember with a paint marker or other tool
   
   
   
   Fig. Once the hood latch is matchmarked, remove it from the crossmember (without disconnecting the cable) and set it aside
   
4. Remove the Coolant Recovery System (CRS) overflow tank filler neck hose.
5. Disconnect the cooling fan electrical connector located on the left side of the cooling fan module.
6. Remove the CRS overflow tank mounting screw from the upper radiator crossmember.
7. Remove the upper radiator-to-crossmember mounting screws.
8. If equipped, disconnect the engine block heater wiring connector.
9. Remove the upper radiator crossmember.

10. Remove the entire air cleaner assembly.
11. Disconnect and plug the automatic transaxle oil cooler lines from the radiator.
12. Disconnect the upper and lower radiator hoses from the radiator. Remove the lower radiator hose clip from the cooling fan module.
13. Remove the A/C condenser mounting fasteners and separate the A/C condenser from the radiator. Be sure the condenser is supported in position.
14. Remove the A/C filter/drier mounting bracket, 2 mounting bolts to the cooling fan module and 2 mounting nuts to the filter/drier. Remove the mounting bracket.
15. Carefully lift the radiator out of the engine compartment. Be careful not to damage the radiator cooling fins or water tubes during removal.

Radiator - REMOVAL & INSTALLATION

On the 8-250 and 8-273 engines use only a coolant solution specifically designed for use in aluminum engines.

1. Disconnect the battery ground cable.
2. Drain the cooling system.
3. Disconnect the air conditioning compressor, if so equipped, and position it out of the way without disconnecting the hoses.
4. Remove the clamp that holds the air conditioning high pressure vapor line to the cradle.
5. Loosen the hose clamps and disconnect the upper and lower radiator hoses.
6. Disconnect the two transmission cooler lines and plug them.

Disconnect the heater return hose, if so equipped.

1. Remove the two top radiator cradle clamps, straps or sheet metal cover and the fan shroud. Disconnect the reservoir hose from the filler neck.
2. Remove the vacuum hoses, if so equipped. Mark them for proper installation.
3. Pull the radiator straight up and out of the car.
4. Reverse the above procedure for installation.

I really hope help with this (remember rated and comment this).

1. Drain coolant
2 Remove lower splash shields
3. Disconnect the lower radiator hose and the high pressure transaxle line
4. Lower the vehicle
5. Disconnect the transaxle return line
6. Disconnect the upper radiator hose and degas hose
7. Position the hood latch assembly out of the way
8. remove the 2 bolts and the center support
9 remove the 2 top bolts retaining the cooling fan to the radiator
10. remove the upper radiator support brackets, and remove the radiator from the vehicle
11. To install, reverse the removal procedure

pop off air filter, then remove bolts across the top of radiator, remove the oil and trans lines, disconnect fan lines, dissconnect hoses, remove bolts from fan brackets, then pull the fans out, then remove the radiator by pulling it up andout

check to see if there is a valve (usually vacuum actuated) inline somewhere on the lines that go from the block to the heater core. Maybe it is stuck...
