okay, if that jumble of random words im reading above here is accurate.

you replaced the entire radiator and both the lower and upper radiator hoses and one of the smaller hoses that goes into the top on the back of the head?

i found this out the hard way last week. car died while i was on the freeway, had to pull over to the shoulder. i thought i burned out the coil or something, when i pulled off the dist. cap the screw was just laying inside, and rotor was spinning freely

to see the screw your going to have to turn the crank by hand. get a ratchet, extension, and socket to fit the crank pulley bolt. turn the crank till you see the screw(if it's still there). then tighten it.

i have a 92 honda accord this is what i replaced goin from which went first
radiator
top coolant hose - and thermo and cap
then a hose that went out and back in on the motor in the back of the engine close to the top left corner of the valve cover

[IMG]file:///C:/DOCUME%7E1/Owner/LOCALS%7E1/Temp/moz-screenshot.jpg[/IMG]

and now the lower hose i didn't replace is starting to squeeze out coolant from the connection to the thermo
and thats why im starting to think i got a wrong thermo ??

also my hoses are so very hard like they wanna burst is that normal ??? could that be why im leakin out the lower hose now bc its old and weak maybe ???

Are you saying that you are having extreme coolant pressure buildup that is blowing connections apart and making hoses very hard? You have a cracked sleeve most likely if that is the case. Does it ever smoke white at startup or smell sweet?
