Need Help With My Honda Overheating by kazibra: 10:58am On Oct 19, 2010 |
Hello All I have a Honda accord 1991 series (popularly referred to as HONDA HALLA).The problem started about 3 months ago when there was some leakages in some of the hose which always make the car overheat when the water leak out of the radiator.One after the other I was able to change the leaking hose only for the overheating to continue.I was informed by a mechanic that the first overheating had burnt the gasket and that I have to change it: which I did and the problem subsided. About 3 weeks ago,the car started overheating again and I have done everything possible (Flush the radiator,change the gasket again!,have a rewire put my cooling fan in order) but the engine still overheat.Right now the car overheat within 15 minutes of driving and truly I don't know what to do again cos am fed up with all these mechanics suggesting solutions that doesn't solve the problem I will appreciate if anybody can help me out. |

i am not a mechanic but let the electrician and your mechanic work together - change the gasget again, check that fan is working well, check thermostat and check the water pump. Did you recently instal an AC?Over heating from either a poorly functioning fan, a bad thermostat or a bad water pump could be recurrently burning the top cylinder gasget. So it is go to check everything at once, fix the primary fault and replace a burnt gasget. Good luck. |
