h22 in civic radiator question will the ek radiator keep it cool enough?
hey guys i finally got all my drama figured out i had the ckp and the tach signall wires mixed up at the distributor and the iacv wire came out of the ecu plug but its all fixed now took for drive and love it. got some questions though i drove it for about 30 mins really soft and hard on the throttle and got no check engine light for the egr or the iab do you think something is wrong? and will my stock ek radiator do the job cuz it seems to run a little on the hot side?

yeah it takes a while for the egrcode to come on, but once it does, it will go one when your car is warmed up,
As for the rad, Im running my stock one, with a slim fan. I dont plan on changing, temp is where is suppose to be at.

i ran a Del Sol b16 rad and fan (no trimming and the necks are the right size for the h22 motor. The hottest my motor ever got was just under 1/2... cooling was never really an issue.... if you are running really hot, put a manual switch on the fan and switch it on when its getting really hot. Also check out your thermostat. it could possibly be defective

when your car is at operationg temperature, with a rag on your hand see check your upper and lower rad hoses. If one is hot and the other is kinda cold, you have a defective thermostat

EGR valve takes a while sometimes.....it's off on my h23 and doesn't come on sometimes but some times it does
