    Re: 1987 Honda Accord Sedan/ New Guy

    Plus I hate to think the worst of people but I think he was trying to get over on me for more money so he told me the lower hose blew, but it's a straight rip in the top hose by the thermostat. But good news, block was not warped. And now here I am about to put in a new thermostat and radiator hose. I'm also probably gonna get a carb rebuild kit and give myself a whole day or night and check it out.

    Have you replaced your radiator cap? Last march my radiator blew up because the cap wasn't relieving pressure. I replaced the radiator and cap bought the idiot at advance gave me the wrong cap. Long story short on the way back to replace the cap I blew a heater hoose. Cut it and slipped it back on and blew the top radiator hose right when I got int town. I made it to carquest got a new cap and hoses and patched my old hose so I could get back home. Haven't had a problem since.

    Other thing it idle high. Between 21 and 2500 RPM's. But I was told a little carb tweaking fixes that. ?

    Thats good. I don't know anything about the carb but you should use the repair manual to tune the carb.
