yeah so i just got my car back oin the road i got a 91 crx with a b16a and an eg rad with a slim fan!

now i had this for a while but for some reason now my resevoir tank is bubbling and then over flowing all over the place but nothgin is coming out of the radiator and the car is not overheating!!!

idk what is wrong, do you think maybe the rad is bad? but like i said ive had the rad in there for a while and thsi never happened !

 

is your fan turning on?

 

yeha its on a manual switch also and its running all the time really


edit" do you think it could be the thermostate not opening all the way?

bump

 

check your radiator cap. its suppose to let fluid both to and from the resivoir, it might just let it there and not back. there real cheap and might as well replace it since it probably never has been replaced

 

hmm... i will try that


anyone else have any input if the cap doesnt work?

 

we're good! i changed the thermostate and rad cap (the cap was fucked up)

no overflowing since then! thanks for the help guys

 

yes it was most likely the cap, my old dx had a bad cap and it would boil over but not overheat, with the new cap it raised the boiling point and was fine

 

yea, now my alternator isnt charging the battery

im tired of this
