Engine Overheating! Please Help! b18b
Okay, so I have a 93 Civic that has had a 94 b18b swap. I took off my radiator hose on the end that connects to the engine replacing a clamp. Coolant poured out so I added more after I was done with this. Ever since my car has been overheating. It takes about 5 minutes of highway driving for the temp to rise as high as it can. Steam was shooting out of a hole in the radiator hose (I found the hole after stopping to check things out, I don't think it was there before this). So I know it needs to be replaced, I have a friend bringing one over. But my question, wtf is going on??? I'm going to try bleeding the radiator. I also have a loose cam seal causing oil to leak and I plan on jb welding it, could the can leak be related? What should I do??? Follow my plan? Something else? Thanks in advance. ����
*Update*
So I got the over heating issue solved by simply replacing the upper radiator hose. Now it's keeping cooler than before �� Didn't have to flush the radiator or anything. As far as the cam seal goes at the local parts store I picked up two cam shaft oil seals, it was all they had so I'm at least going to try it out before ordering a new cam plug. But now I'm having a misfire and loss of power issue. I think it's due to the over heating and it screwed up a spark plug, wires, or the coil pack. Sooo I guess I'll be on to all that tomorrow when I try out these o rings. Hopefully it's not the coil pack. ��
*UPDATE* again. Replaced wires and fixed the misfire issue.
