temp getting to 3/4 ?
I got a '00 EX and it blew the radiator. Changed the thermostat/radiator but now it still is getting to 3/4 the way up on the temp gauge but its only doing it with the AC on? Fan seems to be functioning properly and I doubt I have vapor lock. Any ideas to what could be causing all these issues?? thx

Does the fan run?
Is the radiator FULL of antifreeze, 50/50 mix?
An overheat event can damage the head gasket. It might not be obvious right away either.
