94 civic lx stock overheating???
this is in laws car and i think i already know the problem but just want to make sure.......they said that the car temp gauge jumps from cold to normal back and forth and that the fan turns on for like 5-10 seconds then turns off.....now they said they were driving and started smoking (i think overheat) and that when they removed the coolant cap off and nothing but steam was coming......my guess would be thermostat ??????

my guess at this point is a lot more problem then just the tstat. esp if they overheated it sounds like they were low on coolant so the question is why. leak in the rad, bad hose, bad rad cap, or blown ead gasket
