OverHeating!!

[Kevin]

Ok, MY car has been overheating lately!! I swapped thrmostat and waterpump!! On start up the it sometimes runs really rough-runny really rich or on 3 cylinders. After i swapped the pump it heated up and would not circulate-so pulled the 2nd brand new thrmo out and ran none and everything is fine until it heats up again and has little coolant in raditor. Seems to smoking alota but doesnt smell like anything other than fuel. Compression seems to be fine. I have 180 in all but one. Number 3 has 150 but a healy core is in that cylinder and does not put the plug all the way into the cylinder!!! I can find no leaking from anywhere and my belt sqeals. The belt is new and tight also. If anyone has any info please help me!! Thanks

test your thermal sensors for the fans, bottom of the rad i believe?, my fans dont come on in my car and i have to turn the heat on inside the car when im in traffic so it doesnt overheat,lol, hope that helps a little

Did you bleed the air out of the system? This needs to be done or you can get an air pocket that can cause overheating.

[truetune]

yes beed the system it will cause overheating and irregular idle, I have both fans hooked to a togle switch so I can just turn them on when ever I feel.

which specific wires did you tie into, excactly how did you do it? cause i tried and couldnt ever figure it out

[Kevin]

I did bleed the system-I think its my head gasket!! Im losing coolant at a fast rate and fing anywhere it is going!!! If it ends up being alot of money i might end up selling the b16 intake manifold. It is pre drilled for the 3rd gen and comes with everything. The Map, TPS, Gsr tb, fuel rail and wiring for sensors. For a little extra i will sell my h22 injectors with it!!

[Kevin]

Just an update-My head gasket is blown!! If anybody wants needs parts let me know!! I have the B16 intake manifold with everything, Msd ignition box, Autometer A/f gauge, Dc sports header, and a butch of other stuff!! Let me know!! If you want the car its in kn condition other than the haed gasket!! I doubt the head needs alot maching because it never reached a very high temp!! I just dont have the time anymore!!

[bobafett]

how much for manifold COMPLETE with TB and fuel rail injectors etc...

[Kevin]

i dont know!! Maybe 250!! I also have all the wiring connecters to go from the a20 harness to the 4th gen MAP and TPS!! I just need cash!! It will be a little more than regular if the h22 injectors go!!! Any questions Pm me and i will be glad to answer!! I also have an MSD 6a box and an accel coil and Autometer A/F gauge, Dc header and exhaust!!!

[Strugglebucket]

Dc sports header, and a butch of other stuff!!

uh oh...

[Hondacrazy]

WHy do you spend the money and put a head gasket into it. The gasket is only 30 here in canada. And it is a easy job.

[bobafett]

well if he warped the head etc then he has a lot more to worry about.

hey i wont be able to afford it until my next check, but i will give you 250 for everything as long as it included the intake manifold modded to fit, and all other parts i will need. - a bolt on - if you will...

let me know if you can wait a week thats when i get paid, hopefully i can work it out then

sorry for your loss but i have to ask how much for the header?? I live in oregon so i would asume $30 for shipping, well let me know how much with shipping? i also might be interested in the coil. do you have any picks of the header??

[Kevin]

The header has a small crack so i would let go for like 100 bucks!! The car never overheated!! It just would heat up!! I would add coolant before it got too hot! So i doubt the head is warped!! I also work alot and have very little time to work on the car!! I have alot of stock parts if any body needs anything!! I also have an MSD 6a box and Autometer A/f gauge!! Someone can even my exhaust!! doesnt matter to me!! Any questions on any part-Let me know!!!
