Have an h22 in my 95 hatch...overheating problems
I was wondering if anyone else has had this issue. I have tried everything that i can think of so the only resolution is to have the fan running constantly. Dont wanna go thru a lot of fans. Also how is your shifter setup. I cannot get my center console to go back into place because the prelude shifter is so large. Thanks for your time.

If you have the space, run a bigger radiator..or a radiator from an integra. It's as slim, but goes across the whole radiator support instead of just half. Not sure if you have the room, though. If you dont have the room, a simple solution would be to add in some water wetter, and run a pusher and puller fan. Pusher in front of the radiator (closest to the bumper) obviously. You could also try a colder thermostat...or no thermostat at all. But that might affect cold weather driveability and emissions and gas mileage. Plus when its the freezing ***** cold of winter, you want your heater on fast, dammit! lol.

Ive tried no thermostat, didnt work. I was thinking about the teg radiator. I have one in my garage, maybe ill try that. I burnt up my fal fan. Wheres the best place to get another one? How about a thicker high performance fan? Or maybe a del sol radiator?

well the del sol dual core radiator will be thicker. the teg radiator has more surface area. use the teg radiator since space is limited under the hood usually with an H22 civic. Your fans shouldn't be burning out. My friend's DSM had his fan wired to run all the time (dont ask why) and it never burned out. It was a SPAL. You can probably get one on ebay or something on the cheap.
