my civic obviously over heats after 5 min of driving 75% up the gauge and theres coolant in the res, i was thinking therm-stat i checked fan fuses aswell?

 

You probably have air in your lines. Park your car on a hill with the radiator nearest the top of the hill and take your radiator cap off. Leave it like that for a while, then start it up and get the pump running. Make sure no bubbles pop up anywhere.

Other than that, check your thermostat.

 

thanks dude, sucks i live in orlando florida i dont know where the nearest hill is..but ill def give it a shot

 

lol, I'm right with you man, I'm in Tampa and I live in Daytona most of the year. You could try just jacking the front end up over night if you have a floor jack. Easier than finding a hill.
