you can run any fluid through those lines, it will help keep that fluid at the same temp as the coolant. warm it or cool it, you can use it to cool the engine oil, or the very least keep it no hotter than the engine coolant.

oh ok that makes sense then, so really it is just for fluid to go through that part of the radiator and just for that other fluid to flow through, right? I didn't know that, which is why I was asking. That's pretty cool then and very handy to know. I was thinking it would mix with the fluid, but then that wouldn't make much sense then, considering it is mostly used with an automatic.... So I see now.
