B16A in EG Civic and I don't have any pressuer in my radiator hoses.
Recently I checked my radiator hoses when my car was on and realized that they had no pressure. I bought a new thermostat to put on today, but this is the third one in like 4 months. Could there be some other problem besides the thermostat? How do you check to see if a thermostat is good?

Re: B16A in EG Civic and I don't have any pressuer in my radiator hoses. (undercoverSI)
i've noticed its a bìtch sometimes to get a working thermostat....have you tried to get an OEM one? I know there is a way to check to see if they are working..and I believe you can heat some water up on the stove and dip it in there and see if it opens up....is the car overheating? Which radiator hose doesn't have pressure? Hope its not the water pump.

My first thermostat was an OEM. The upper radiator hose is the one without pressure and sometimes the lower. I hope it isn't the water pump because I just put it in about 6k ago.
