Really shoots up quick when A/C is on and car not moving. Both fans do operate. If I swtich to heat...the temp gauge will start to drop slowly (car not moving). Thermostat ? Car has 79,000 miles. > Really shoots up quick when A/C is on and car not moving. Both fans do > operate. If I swtich to heat...the temp gauge will start to drop > slowly (car not moving). Thermostat ? Car has 79,000 miles. 1. check the coolant level inside the radiator - looking at the expansion bottle is insufficient. 2. check for bubbling in the coolant bottle with the motor running. 3. if it was full and there was no bubbling, replace the thermostat and gasket with new honda oem components. 4. report back. ndccpf1 <ndccpf1@gmail.com> wrote in news:1187263316.494049.87610 @i13g2000prf.googlegroups.com: > Really shoots up quick when A/C is on and car not moving.

Thanks again ! > Was the thermostat....I changed this AM and all is good A/C and all ! Just to be sure, is the new thermostat OEM? That is very important. > > Was the thermostat....I changed this AM and all is good A/C and all ! > > Just to be sure, is the new thermostat OEM? That is very important. No I was going to use OEM honda but the friend picked up (Mexican made) part >>> Was the thermostat....I changed this AM and all is good A/C and all ! >> >> Just to be sure, is the new thermostat OEM?

Bite the bullet and get an OEM part. Ouch! I find OEM thermostats costs not much more but much better built than any aftermarket ones I've ever seen. > No I was going to use OEM honda but the friend picked up (Mexican > made) part |
