So i decided to get my emission testing done today..when im driving to the testing station i there's a big splash on my winshield..Im like WTF? so i countinue not thinking nothing of it...when im at the line i get out of the car cuz i smell coolant and the tech guy tell me to pull it to the rollers and i was expletive i hope my car ok....so the roller spins....and smokes hissing out the cap and the tech guy says to shut it off and come again to retest so parked it out their testing place and pop the hood i though i just needed coolant...and i was fillin it with coolant I see this


so i just called the tow truck and had it tow to my place...

Do u guys think i fucked up my head??? and what guesses do u have that this couldve happend????

 

whatthe hell happen to your upper radiator hose?

 

The rad hoses is still there....just my rad took a ****....

 

Head might be ok. Get the radiator issue fixed and run a compression test or see if white steam is coming out of the exhaust.

did your temp needle ever go past the red?

and is there any smoking after the radiator has been replaced?

 

that happened to me but i was in the drive thru beer store. radiators suck i have gone threw two

 

just replaced mine too, never saw steam or anything, but could smell coolant, never got too hot either, just repalced it as a precaution.

 

ehhh....as long as ur needle wasnt on red for a long time....then i cant see how ur head would be messed up. plastic honda radiators take a **** often.

it was on red for a while...dumb me!!!

 

replace radiator and done a leakdown test or compression test to see if any leakage is occuring if so replace the headgasket. if so do the waterpump,timing belt and drive belts and thermostate and gasket because you overheated the motor.

 

wow..replace all thats necessarry...ive seen this problem in traffic quite a few times.

 

So we replaced the radiator..filled it with Type 2 coolant..and its still overheating...the needle goes up...the fan didn't turn on while idling in the garage...but both fans turned on when my bro turned the A/C on.

 

Did a compression test and the results
cylinder 4= 205
cylinder 3= 205
cylinder 2= 200
cylinder 1= 200
ima go change my thermostat now....wish me luck
