I have replaced my thermostat head gasket and did 3 coolant flushes and my car still overheats on the freeway and in hot weather. I am positive I did everthing right. I then tried opening the bleeder screw on the upper hose. There was a lot of bubbles in there and it didn't stop lol. Anyone know about that bleeder screw. Correct procedures? More info? Also could this be the problem?
Frustrated lol

 

Anyone know anything?

 

Your radiator could be plugged, How about your water pump? From what i heard, bubbles can mean blown head gasket, but since you replaced the HG, it probably isnt it.

 

Yea I thought the same about the bubbles. There is a tool that measures the exhaust gas in the cooling system to show a blown hg and I had none it it so the last thing might be the plugged radiator. Should I buy a new one cuz mine has some white stuff n it

 

i texted you up the other day to see if you still had them z6 injectors for gratis but you never hit me back up...que pasa

 

sounds like you might have a leaking head gasket on this one.. Best to replace it with a New OEM honda one before you do any damage to the head also Check your intake manifold and your bypass tube from the termostat to the water pump for any signs of leaks or dried up coolant.. that could be the source also

 

If you have done 3 coolant flushes chances are going to be that there are alot of bubbles.

The way I always bleed the coolant lines is pop the rad cap off (when the motor is cold so you dont burn yourself) start the car up, let it get up to operating temp, turn the heat on full blast and let it idle until all the bubbles are out of the system. this method allows all the coolant to circulate throughout the system and get the air out of the heater core as well.

Does the fan come on? Does the upper radiator hose get as hot as the bottom radiator hose when the car is up to temp?

 

Still got em' Got a new number hit me up 626 679 2183

 

Yupp the rad hoses are good cap is good . But I forgot to turn the heater on when I do it and ill let yall kno

 

So I checked everything I used a oem honda hg and took the head to a machine shop and completly check and it was good . The only thing I havnt changed is the radiator. It has some white bulidup n it could that be it? It also has some bent fins on the front and a lil rust on the fins. Would anyone recomend rodding it out or just gettn a used one? Cuz I'm broke right now and need a cheap solution

 

one way to check for a clogged radiator is to touch it while its warm, move your hand around and look for a cold spot, it should be evenly hot if its flowing.
be carefull. also check your radiator cap, if its not holding enough pressure your cooling system wont work as it should .

 

How would I check the radiator. With the fans on the radiator? Is there a way to get to it from the bottom?

 

i guess all you can really access is the side (from the back) unless you have AC or half radiator. if you do have a half sized radiator you could probably reach around to the front.

 

Aite ima see wats up ill also check the thermostat agian
