I've had overheating problems last month. Now the initial observation was, its a cyclinder head issue since nauubos yung fluid sa radiator at reserve at bumubulwak nung tinest yung flow ng coolant/water. PinaLavramon ko yung engine tapos nung tinignan yung radiator sinuggest na palitan ko yung radiator. So upgraded na sa 2-row aluminum radiator at di na nagoverheat pero nung pinainit to test kung nag circulate bumulwak pa din. My question is, should I be concerned that its a cyclinder head issue since di nag overheat at stable na yung coolant supply, na di nag drain or apaw at wala naman yung one of the signs na milky white substance sa oil cap?

1. are you overheating, as evidenced by your temperature gauge?
2. are you losing coolant?
3. are you both overheating and losing coolant?

them are different things.

It can have perfect compression test result even if the coolant is leaking into the combustion chamber s.


The preferred test for this concern and is more conclusive is a cooling system pressure test.

if you're not overheating or not even getting high temp on your gauge that shouldn't be an immediate concern. Now, question is gaano kadami yung bumubulwak sa radiator? afaik, kung hindi naman masyadong madami or malakas ang pag bulwak normal naman may bubulwak dyan pero dapat konti lang lalo na kung sarado pa thermostat at the time of testing, paki correct na lang mga master...

Bumubulwak on cold startup:

1. Thermostat valve was removed by siraniko
2. Thermostat valve is stuck open

Before the old radiator was replaced, check on 3 but not anymore. I'm just concerned when I was told it might be a cylinder head issue since bumulwak yung tubig but that only happens when the temp is extreme not when it is cold

nung nirev kasi parang malakas yung bulwak but as the moment the temp is stable and the rad and reseerve does not run out of coolant. No milky white substance also on the oil cap per those guides I'm seeing online for a busted cylinder head/gasket

Hello po again. I'm having temperature issues po with my 03 Honda City Type Z. The temperature is getting high so I stopped at the nearest gas station to get water to cool down. There were some bystanders who helped me out to figure out what's wrong with the car. They are saying that the radiator was clogged.
Here's what I know so far:
-the fans are working fine
-I'm not losing coolant and water from the radiator

If the overheating just happened, maybe the coolant level was low or maybe the thermostat was stuck closed. At that age I would replace the thermostat whether it still opens normally or not.
