overheating problem- 96 civic dx
my civic is acting weird haha.
well here's the story, i had a water problem so i had to get a new radiator, clamps, and a thermostat. so for about two weeks it was running great. then i changed my oil. last week i started to run hot so i pulled over. i checked the water and it was good. so i drove off. i went like 10 ft and the temp just shot up. i checked the oil and had none at all. so i put three quarts in and when i checked it the next day i had wayyyyy to much oil on the dipstick. so when its cold there is too much oil, but when its warm/running, there is like no oil on the dipstick. it runs hot and idk what the problem is. any helpp? thanks in advance. i talked to a guy today and he said it was the water pump?
