you might have air in your coolant system. try bleeding the air, and if that doesn't work, flush out all the coolant and refill it

i mean hondas don't even need a cooling fan. mine is wired to a switch on my dash and i never have to flip it on. the only time that mine got hot was when i drove it for 2 hours straight and let it idle for 20 min. then i put the fan on and it cooled right down. i think something is restricting the coolant flow whether its some **** or air

bad- uhhh...yeah they do. i don't even have an engine that i thought would get that hot but i've been overheating as well. it's a y7 and ANY time i'm stopped and idling for more than 2 minutes, the temp gauge goes sky high. as long as i'm driving, i'm ok, but if i'm sitting somewhere with the engine on, it'll overheat.
its gotta be some kind of blockage in your coolant system. drain your coolant, pull the hose off of your radiator and spray a garden hose into the hose with the engine running. that should clear it out. i think the make chemicals for cleaning out your coolant system.
yeah i people says its the headgasket there is no air in the system wat so ever when it starts to get hot the overflow gets full i am sick of this problem i think maybe it s my head gasket
i am also running a 2 layer headgasket since i am allmotor and 13 flat compression i dont if that helps

pull our thermostat out, and boil a pot of water, and see it it poips open. your thermostat might be out, its only like a 5 dollar peice, and you can run your car without a thermostat during the summer, it will help[ it run cooler, remember to put it back in for winter because if you dont, you wont hav heat.
its a brand new thermstat from hodn aman i dont wanan run with out one if i have a other problem i ould liek to fix it so it runs like a normal car ya know
i thk its a headgasket

you guys skipped a huge one
is the fan turning on?
while the car is warm, start it somewhere quiet (like a garage) and let it idle, watch the temp. if it starts to overheat without the fan turning on it could be something like a relay or fuse.

ok for the fan the fan is on all the time to keep it cool i got it jumped and the system has no air in it and there is no nipple on my head for letting the air out but i know what u arre talking about
