B16 AEBS Mani. leaking EACV??
Has anyone had this problem. I drove my car for the first time today and noticed (when I got home) that something under the hood was sizzling. SO I popped the hood and saw coolant dripping from the EACV onto the header pipe. I have the AEBS manifold on there(polished). Has anyone else had a problem like this? What can I do to make a better "seat" between the two?

the gasket between your manifold and the eacv? those ports are for air.
the only coolant comes from the two hoses inder the eacv. if it leaks internally replace it.

Thanks, I took it off this morning and put it back with additional gasket sealant. It seems to have stopped, but now I am getting an overheating problem.

Yeah,
I just gotr back in. My car idled for the past hour. Before starting, I took out the bleeder screw and it was bone dry, so I figured there had to not be enough coolant. Even though I topped the radiator off 3 different times. I opened the rad. cap again, and its low so I add 3 more Taco Bell cups (it was convenient and easy to mix with) with the screw out. I then let the car run while I installed some hedlights in a guys Accord. I checked on mine frequently and it never got hot during idle. After I finished the install I turned my car off. The rad. fluid was a little low. I then checked the valve and now fluid was flowing out like it should when its loose and the lower radiator hose was also warm. So I think the problem is fixed (I have not driven it yet, but everything appears OK.
Thanks for the help so far
