    Honda accord 1997

    tanong ko lang saan maganda magpaayos ng radiator? near Las Pinas lang

    nilinis na yung radiator (overhaul). nacheck na din na wala DAW LEAK, mababa naman ang temp nya (city driving) pero pag long drive like going to tagaytay nagooverheat siya.

    ano inputs niyo dito mga sir? ano kaya sira neto? and saan pede ipaayos? near Las Pinas lang sana.

    have your radiator hoses checked baka me leaks na. Also, check if the clips attaching the hoses to the radiator and engine block are tight. And check for leaks around the thermostat assembly (connecting the upper radiator hose to the block). And finally check if your car is emitting white smoke sa exhaust baka (hopefully hindi) me leak na cylinder head gasket mo.

    Have the radiator cap checked or replaced if it is more than 4 years old. The spring underneath may not be doing its job to release internal pressure when needed. Make sure the replacement is of the same spec as the original.

    I also have a 97 Accord with the same problem. City driving is fine, but long drives at ~100Kph along SLEX/NLEX with the aircon on caused it to overheat.

    Turns out it was the radiator cap. Bought a 1.1 bar rated cap from speedyfix and all was fixed.

    I have my radiator fixed at Mang Joe's, near Rizal High School in Sixto Antonio Ave Pasig. This is near Pasig Rotonda. Ilang dekada na nandun yung Joe's Radiator Shop, kilala na siya dun. Pero dahil sobrang liit nang shop, 1 customer at a time lang puede.

    May thermostat pa ba ang Accord mo? Baka natanggalan na ng thermostat, at ikot lang nang ikot ang tubig. For long drives, the radiator will not have the chance to cool down the circulating water, kasi ikot lang nang ikot eh. The thermostat is supposed to keep water from circulating, so the radiator is able to cool down the temps, when thermostat opens due to high temp, it will release the hot water back to the radiator, and take in the cooled down water, then shut off uli ang thermostat.

    have the engine vacuum checked with the engine idling, when you snap the throttle and at 2000 rpm. it will show exhaust restriction, intake vacuum leak, or intake restriction if any. also, check for egr (exhaust gas recirculation) valve for proper operation
