"H" temperature warning light blinking

[wezz_zzew]

Gud am guys! Need your help and experience/expertise here. Habang nagddrive ako, napansin ko na nagbblink ung "H" dun sa gauge ko. I understand na papaunta na cia ng overheat. Pagdating ko sa haus, pinalamig ko muna ung makina dahil alam ko na delikado pag binuksan ko agad ung radiator cap. After an hour, binuksan ko na pero may nakapatong na basahan para just in case, hindi ako matalsikan nung laman. Nung dahan dahan ko binuksan, ayun, kusang lumabas ung mga liquids. Does it mean nag overheat ung car ko? I've noticed na bawas na ung laman so i've decided na dagdagan ng coolant. pinuno ko na ung radiator and pati ung reserve tank nya pero minsan lumalabas pa din ung warning light. Prior to this issue, nagpalit nga pala ako ng intake. Pinalitan ko ung stock ng Simota Air Filter. Sa tingin nyo po ba may kinalaman ung Intake sa mabilis na pag init ng makina ko? Ano ang ibang dahilan bakit nagkakaganun? TIA

Nag steady light ba sir yung H? If blinking, its only a warning na malapit ka na magoverheat, pag nag steady na naka lit yung H, thats the time na nagooverheat na yung car.

Regarding simota, if open type, yeah, pwede makatulong sa mabilis na pag init, heatsoak, pero parang ngayon lang ako naka encounter na nagcacause sya ng overheat.

Check mo nalang ulit by installing back the stock airbox and observe, and as posted above, pacheck mo nadin thermostat. Baka nga naka stuck open na.

Goodluck!

tama si sir kinyo... baka water pump is not working na kahit puno pa reservoir mo or faulty thermostat.

Thanks to all! I'll have it check tomorrow sa Siraniko ko. ^_^

Have your thermostat checked. Baka hindi na bumubukas.

Sir wezz,

Normally, upgrading your stock air filter to Simota should not affect or would not lead to overheat of your cooling system. Some of the things you need to check:
1. Radiator Fan - Is it working? If it still work, does the fan rotates properly, enough or high?
2. Water Pump
3. Thermostat
4. Relays

pinuno ko na ung radiator and pati ung reserve tank nya pero minsan lumalabas pa din ung warning light.

hindi naman dapat pinupuno ung reserve tank...

Several things.

1) If from a cold start and you encounter coolant spewing out of your radiator filler neck, then its likely your cylinder head that's going to need work.

2) If on the other hand this happens only when you're running there's a good chance your coolant loop is heavily silted and corrosion has caused blockages in your tubes. Replace the radiator.

I don't think the air filter did anything to your engine unless you're burning really really lean and that your radiator is already compromised.
