Honda'96 Vti, OVER HEATING PROB...nauubusan ng water pero walang leak

[Galactus]

3.) Pag kumukulo ung reservoir, mabilis ding tumaas temp with or without aircon, plus me usok na puti sa tambutso, hard starting... for sure sa makina or cylinder head gasket ang problem.

Hindi lahat ng kumukulo yung coolant reservoir, ibig sabihin eh may tama na ang makina or cylinder head gasket.

Yung Sentra S3 ko before (2005 nangyari), hindi na malamig yung aircon pag hindi umaandar ang sasakyan. So tinabi ko at pinatay ang makina. I popped the hood at nakita kong kumukulo yung tubig sa reserve tank. I had it checked sa Frigid Zone, and the culprit was the aircon fan. Mahina na yung ikot. Since sealed type sya, hindi na pwede ang carbon replacement, palit talaga. So pinalitan ko ng surplus.

From 2005 until the time I sold it last month, walang naging problem sa engine ko or headgasket.

Thanks for some clarification.

I may add also, that those 3 times ako nag-overheat umaandar at o.k. yung radiator fan at aircon fan ko, that's why for sure it wasn't the fan who is the culprit that time. I'm talking about a '96 VTI here. maybe a different case with Sentra's too.

I may add an experience also regarding aircon fan. Wayback Nov. 2006, while driving at a speed of 20km/h, kasi me hinahanap kaming bahay in one of the barangays in our nearby town, biglang me umusok sa hood ko na parang pumutok pero din naman namatay makina ko. So what I did, tumabi ako and pinatay ko aircon at makina. Check ko hood and tinignan ko wala naman problem sa Rad or Wirings.

We went home, pero di nako nag-aircon (for assurance, pero not knowing na aircon pala talaga problem nung usok). then pina check ko mechanic ulit, after some testing napansin nya di umiikot ung fan ng aircon, so tinangal nya at tinignan namin, busted na yung motor ng aircon. So bumili ako surplus aircon fan, installed namin then o.k. na, while naka-on yung aircon, napansin namin di gaano lumalamig, then na-conclude nya na ung umusok sa hood is ung lumabas na freon, parang nag high pressure kasi nga di umiikot yung fan during nung time na ginamit ko ung car.

So I went to an aircon shop, pinalinis ko, pinalitan ng expansion valve at filter drier and lagay freon. buti na lang di nasira evaporator. Costs me 6k pati labor na.

Mga Sirs, magkano po kaya ang gastos sa pagpapalit ng Water Pump?

labor?
Waterpump?

Thanks!

I don't think it has anything to do with the make of the car. I've seen toyotas being unreliable as well. In fact I doubt brand has anything to say anymore in the late 90's correk ka dyan. But today same price halos lahat. The price of the car is almost similar (2nd hands 90's). It relies heavily on the user. Misconception to think that a toyota car has cheaper spare parts and more reliablity. How many times na ako sumakay sa overheated na FX and palpak ung aircon. ehem. This goes for all brands.


Back to topic. Dude I'd say 90% it's your aircon compressor blowing out freon. This is also a cause for overheat. Once there is too much pressure build up in an A/C system the freon will need to go out. The pressure switch is useless in this situation because it only triggers when there is insufficient freon. In this case the freon goes out from the compressors "relief" valve. It could sound like a bang if it's a glass type. (Glass breaks and boom freon spreads out hence a white smoke but then aircon will not get cold anymore). Or you'll be hearing Brrrrrtt (spring type). A strong spring pushes agains a plate sealing the freon but if pressure exceeds it'll just push out the excess.

Overpressure makes everything hot.

-Condenser
-Compressor

Specially the condenser will affect your radiators temp hence you will see your temp overheating.

guys, hope you can help me out regarding my 96 civic pero lxi 1/t.

napansin ko nung nag 100K sya dami nang lumalabas na problem.

last month, i replaced my transmission and had aircon high pressure problems.
tapos this month, overheating naman. nung una napapansin ko lagi nauubusan yung reservoir ng tubig pero walang leak. nilagyan ko ng carton sa ilalim overnight wala namang marking ng coolant. eto na yung napalitan so far:

1. radiator
2. radiator cap
3. thermostast
4. underwent top overhaul na rin kasi nagooverheat pa rin kahit napalitan na yung tatlo. kasi baka gasket leak.
4. replaced timing belt na rin since nabuksan na yung head.

after 2 days, overheat na naman! tinigil ko sa gasoline station, puno naman water ng radiator pero yung reservoir wala na. so nilagyan, nag-ok. di na rin ako nag-aircon. naopansin ko pag nagidle ako, tumataas. swerte nasa parking na ko. narinig ko may kumukulo sa loob. true enough, umuusok na yung hood ko at tumulo lahat ng tubig sa floor ng parking.

guys, what should i do? a/t yung kotse kaya di ko agad agad mapa-tow. ano kayang nangyari? top overhaul gone wrong? or may bago na namang problema? obviously di ko muna mauuwi yung kotse kasi baka may masira pa ko pag pinilit ko tumakbo. napansin ko pala, during idle tumataas, pero pag mabilis na takbo bumababa.

hay, any suggestions on what to do next? thanks in advance sa mga magrereply!

how about the hose? nacheck na ba? and water pump, im assuming na napalitan na rin ito since change timing belt na. yun dalawa na lang hindi ko nakita pinalitan or nacheck sa oto eh.
