95 honda civic overheating - help anyone??

Latitude Wizard 25 March 2005 12:00:20
 Hi,
I have a 95 honda civic.
I had my temp spike up suddenly once in a while... 2 months later my
radiator broke down. I had the radiator changed. car drove ok for a week or
so then started spiking up on heat.... going to max. The only way i could
control it is by turning on the interior heater to max. as i turn heater to
max the temp begins to climb back. Then i changed the thermostat (drained
fluid). It ran a little better..... less spikes. But now it's almost
predictable.

if i drive on highway wihtout turning on my interior heater the heat will
climb to max. again i have to turn on heater to max to cool it down to
normal (half way).

I really need help to suggest me what could this be?? The fan is working
when i short the wire going to temperature switch. Also if the temp goes up
3/4th i do see the fan running.

anyone with ideas?? I am dreaded that i may need to run heater during
summer.

help me pls.

 You probably have an air bubble in your system. It could be in your
heater core, and those bubbles take a while to dissipate, if ever.

Try running the engine stationary at a couple of K RRM with the
radiator cap off. Watch the temperture, because you don't want
overheating. When you see the coolant level drop, add more coolant.
Eventually you will hear a distinct burb, signalling that th air bubble
came out.

Hope that's it
Remco

sounds like you have a coolant leak. check all your hoses and if
necessary, the water pump "weep" hole. my crx was losing coolant
because the water pump seals had gone.

I have to agree, you never mentioned replacing the water pump. If you have
at least 100k miles it's time to replace the water pump.
