Aleaf.CRX Posted January 25, 2008 Share Posted January 25, 2008 When was the last time the head gasket was replaced? I had the stock on still on my 89 CRX and eventually it gave out and overheated all the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crxtacy Posted January 25, 2008 Share Posted January 25, 2008 did it overheat after the radiator work was done?if so,probably has air pocket in the system.check to see if its really overheating.its not boiling over in the recovery tank is it? try test the temp. sensor which is located under the distributor the single wire.check the resistance to it.

James Matteu Posted January 26, 2008 Share Posted January 26, 2008 Re-bleed the system, check the water pump bearings for binding, check for obvious signs of excessive weeping, pressure test your system, check the temp range of the thermostate.

Honda_boyd0.ob Posted January 26, 2008 Author Share Posted January 26, 2008 i already pressure tested the system but i was maybe thinken the thermostate might be the problem. and also the spare coolent doesnt seem to go to the radiator when its low but even when its full it over heats Re-bleed the system, check the water pump bearings for binding, check for obvious signs of excessive weeping, pressure test your system, check the temp range of the thermostate.
