Overheat Question?

**MadoX** · November 3rd, 2006 09:19 PM

Water pump not from Honda should be around 1200-1400 php. Timing belt get it from Honda. it should be around 1500 give or take. As for a shop to replace your belts you might as well go to speedyfix in Shaw or Autotechnika, ask user speedyfix or torque2006 respectively how much they will charge for the parts and service or just the service.

Update lang po. Kanina check ko ung radiator baka kako hindi naguubos tubig at di nag circulate s reservoir pro ok naman puno ng water ung radiator.

Ano pa po kaya pwede ko e check on my own bago ko pasilip sa mechanic?

Salamat po sa lahat ng tulong. God Bless!

check the water inside the radiator if water is full it means ok.. check the water reservior in every week if nag bawas bah..

check the radiator cap..

Mga sir,

Update lang po.

Sinilip ko po ung level ng radiator lagi naman pong puno ang ung reservior nagbabawas sya pro konti lang so mukhang normal naman. Then ung Top ng Radiator maninit namn sya pag na sa half ung temp.

I already replaced my timing belt recently during the 84,000kms reading..also included are fuel filter, oil filter, engine oil, transmission oil, coolant,timing belt, alternator belt..ang di lang nkasama dito is ung Water pump.

I texted my suking mechanic sabi nya posibble daw na thermostat or Thermoswitch..Possible ba ito ang problem? ano function po nung dalawang ito in relation dun sa problem? magkano po kaya itong Thermostat or Switch?

Also if kung water pump po problem ano po ung relationship nito dun sa Problem?

Mga sir pasensya na medyo maraming tanong gusto ko lang din po matutunan kasi yung technical details di lang basta paggawa ng paggawa.

Thank you po sa tulong & pasensya nyo. God Bless!

Am no mechanic

hmmm... since you're only overheating while stuck in traffic, sa tingin ko water pump nga yan, the water pump circulates the coolant sa engine water jacket which cools the engine.

kasi kung thermostat yan (hindi bumubukas thermostat) kahit tumatakbo ka (not stuck in traffic) aakyat ang temp indicator mo dahil nga stuck-up ang thermostat hindi makapag-circulate ang coolant.

so I think it's the water pump.

i just want to add another thing: if you're more temp gauge is more than half, technically you're overheating. you don't need it to go up till the red line.

What?where did you get this info?

it's probably time to replace the thermostat and thermoswitch assuming there are no leaks. a water pump is belt driven so there is no reason for it to stop working if the engine is running.

probably a seized water pump?

**speedyfix** · November 5th, 2006 01:13 PM

on a belt driven pump, if the waterpump seizes, the belt will snap. if the belt snaps, you will know it for sure coz the engine will not run.
