wow...douches. anyways threw the tstat in some boiling water, opened up...but i'm gonna replace it anyways. i know my head gasket isn't blown i've checked that too, what else is there? could the coolant temp switch or w/e it's called cause it to over heat at high rpms?

rust

Re: 1992 civic dx overheating
 

flush the coolant system while your tstat is out

dont' forget to turn on the heat

Re: 1992 civic dx overheating
 

is your dash gauge overheating? is your heater blowing hot air when you are overheating?

Re: 1992 civic dx overheating
 

the heater is blowing out cold air when it's over heating, and yeah it's the dash gauge

Re: 1992 civic dx overheating
 

Ouch no water left at all then or no anitfreeze just water and a frozen heater core....But I think your transmission is bad or else it would be blowing hot.

This kid lives close enough to drive his overheating 4 door down to sexually molest you :P


I'm moderately sure his water pump is bad from what he's told me.

He changed his T-stat and it's still over heating, his system is full of coolant, it's not hot enough right now to really even need a fan on the highway, his rad open with no cap on isn't bubbling or anything.

Re: 1992 civic dx overheating
 

Does the heater work? (are you getting coolant to the heater core?)

Re: 1992 civic dx overheating
 

That i do not know, the heater was blowing out hot air all the time just a week ago, then with all this itisn't anymore.
