What is wrong with my car? ---> HELP!
Hey,
I have a 99 ex coupe and my water temperature continues to rise when the car is idle. I replaced the thermastat and now I'm ticked off that the temp. is rising again. This started to happen after I got my system installed. What do you think could be the problem? Bad rad? HELP!

Is the fan working? Maybe when they were wiring stuff they messed it up. That would explain why you are overheating at idle. Also does it overheat when you are driving?

do a pressure test on your system and make sure theres no air in the system, if there is then your water pump wont work correctly, and wont pump the water thru-out the cooling system..
