do the fans work? may be a bad fan temp sensor or a blown fuse/relay. turn the a/c on and see if both fans turn on. if not, theres your problem. also bad radiator cap can cause overheating.

i am going to try that 2morrom in the Morin and i got a new thermostat 2day. i am going to try the thing u tell me first and c if that work. if not then i am going to put in the new thermostat hopefully it just air because i change the thermostat be4.

anything else you can think of let me no ???

yeah did you bleed the air out? you gotta wait til car is cold, remove rad cap, start car and warm up to operating temp by revving to 3k rpms, then put the heater on max hot and fan, see if air bubble come from the radiator and add coolant to keep it at the top. do it with the a/c on too. once the bubbles stop, shut the car off and put the cap back on.

i did not do that be4 i am going to try that 2 hopefully all the stuff u tell me it work because i a ready 4 my turbo to go on that the only think stopping me

btw if you try that bleeding method and the air bubbles never stop forming after 15 mins or so, it means the headgasket is leaking. theres also the chance that the air bubbles forming a pocket and ruined the thermostat again. so if you are able to bleed all the air, and the car still overheats, replace thermostat one more time.

are ur fans working?

I would do what gearbox said. Another thing u can do is park ur car on a slanted driveway or up on jackstands and let it sit overnight, then top off the next day. Im going to have to say maybe your head gasket is leaking at this point.

i will i change the thermostat because i take out the old 1 it look ok but i put the new 1 in and it not overheating yet but now i think my fans not come on both that next to fix

 
Rep Power: 254

You would probably overheat if they didnt come on so I think they are working. Do they work when you turn your ac on?

we had a similar problem on our dodge van, it was overheating but still kept running, took it to a shop, they finally found it to be a clogged up radiator!

well his fans dont come on, he needs to fix that first. but yeah ive seen cases where the heater core in the dash would clog.

I got the same problem, except my fans are coming on when I turn on my A/C. I replaced the thermostat and bled it out, then bled it out again, and it is still doing it! Its wierd cause if im cruising at 60 and not flooring it it will heat all the way up, but if Im gunning it it will start to come back down. And what else is wierd is that it only happens once in awhile. It's really starting to give me a headache. I dont want to overheat my engine and ruin it cause of something stupid!

It would also help if the guy didn't type like a douche bag. Maybe more people could understand what he was saying. What a wigger.

that almost sounds like the waterpump isnt working properly. and gunning the engine makes the pump turn faster or maybe get it unstuck (since its connected to the drive belt).

how many miles are on it? did you just get the timing belt/water pump replaced? sometimes shops use non-honda bits.. and ive seen water pumps go bad machined wrong, bad bearing, screwed up impeller....

wow.... kind of funny.

Well I finally got tired of my heat blowing cold everytime I come to a stop light. So I went out and bought a prestone flush kit, and the thing worked perfectly. If your having any kind of troubles like I did my suggestion is to get a kit and flush out your system. It worked perfectly.

nice, maybe the heater core was just a bit clogged then preventing hot coolant from coming through.
