    sir you have a '92 Honda, so I assume na wala pang ECU or computer box yang car mo, carburetor type.
    I suggest of removing the thermostat, with this kasi the coolant mix are always circulating and the temp is somewhat constant, unless you have other problem
    for the coolant, if you've tight budget use wilkins distilled water mas mura kesa sa mga coolant sa market

    Yes sir, carb type po. Hmmmm, from the threads Ive read...removing the thermostat is big no no, right? Pag inalis yun, medyo tataas daw ang FC, aside from that kelangan irekta na ang fan so hinde na marereach ng engine ang required temp nya...and in the long run, it will create bigger problems di po ba?

    Yes, do not remove the thermostat. Have it checked and replaced if necessary.

    when the radiator is overhauled, practically all the coolant is drained ... you will need 4-6 liters (depends on engine size) to replenish ... the coolant volume is usually stated on owner's manual
