First off I have a 1995 honda civic eg8 with a jdm d15b.
200,XXX miles.
Current symtoms:
Over heating (obviously)
Overheating while driving
Heater not working, but fan blowing (even while car is past normal operating temp)
Radiator not pressurized, meaning when car is warm/ hot. Radiator cap is cool to touch and cap can /has been removed. Obviously not normal.
Lower radiator hose soft but upper will engage which I know bc of bleeder bolt
Attempted repairs:
Drained and refilled system according to my helms to remove air from system
Replaced thermatstat
Ran car with only cap and gasket of thermostat aka gutting thermostat hoping to cool car more easily
Now I am suspecting water pump but someone else suggested head gasket. Any ideas or suggestions are welcome but I may not respond until tonight bc I work overnight.
Thanks in advance, you guys have always been helpful.
