small bubbles in radiator, busted HG?

[sleepsus]

na isip ko lang bro (though you didn't mention if you overheat with the A/C on or not)... check mo yung condenser ng aircon baka sobrang init because of high pressure from the compressor... if this happens your radiator's cooling efficiency will be impaired ...

before, it overheated only during high speed and while the ac was on. in one occasion however, i blew my rad's upper tank as i failed to notice that my car's was already in its red zone temp. after i replaced the rad, the same scenario of overheating even with on or off a/c...

Obserbahan mo muna iba talaga pag tirik talaga ang araw lalo na noong nakaraang buwan.

hey guys, i uploaded a new video for your comment. pls take note of the smoke coming from the rad and what happened when i revved in the later part of the video... tnx

btw, nothing is unusual during startup but after reaching normal temp (or probably thermostat open), the smoke and bubbles will appear..

hi bro.
gastos at sakit sa ulo talaga lalo na't concerning overheating issues.
if you're problem really can't be helped and confirmed that it's really HG problem (based on your video), i suggest sir na ikaw na bumili ng mga parts (pls go for orig na) para kahit paano ay makatipid ka then have it serviced in reputable shops like speedyfix. in delicate cases just like yours, it pays to have someone who knows what they're doing, otherwise yung binili mong parts (lalo na kung orig) ay masasayang lang dahil palpak ang pagkagawa.

i've been in the same situation as yours before, isang pikit matang gastusan but i have no other choice, kelangan ko pa rin gamitin yung oto ko eh.

goodluck sir!

[sleepsus]

kamusta bro? pina ayos mo na ba HG mo?

[phezthie]

wala pa din, dito pa kc sa province yung oto. mahirap i travel manila bka masabugan ako uli rad.

Sir nagoverheat na po ba ito? baka may deperensya na yong cyl head gasket.

Kung malapit kayo sa location namin, Try niyo po pumunta sa shop namin bukas.

Sir nasa PM website ang reply ko sa inyo

hey guys, just want to update you on how I solved my accord's problem and how much it costs me

guess what, the actual cost of the solution is less than 400 bucks and the culprit? radiator lower hose, .

but here is the catch...

I was really convinced that my problem was an HG issue so I decided to order compression and leakdown testers from US, and other different testers, scanners and tools to maximize the items i can place inside the box, preparatory to my plan of having my car top overhauled.

but since my other cars were not available yesterday, thanks to MMDA color coding, i took the courage to use my accord going to manila after i replaced the hose by a replacement one i bought from fertes months ago. although hesitant at first to drive too fast, i noticed however that nothing was unusual in my temp gauge so I decided to speed it up purposely to check if it will overheat just like before. luckily, it did not.

To cut the story short, i solved my long overdue problem for a measly Php400 but i have now a bunch of testers/scanners and mechanic's tools amounting to a new engine that i have no other option but to pay

the lesson i learned, bubbles and highspeed overheat does not necessarily mean an HG problem or blown CH and, the moral of the story, dont presume the worst unless all the petty things have been checked and done already...

BTW, many thanks speed unlimited, sleepsus for your ideas and suggestions... and regards to all.

the reason why it's the lower rad hose is because due to its old age and it is collapsing at high speeds creating vacuum in the water jacket in the engine block....i did recommend checking the lower rad hose at the other "overheating thread" in this forum. i don't know kung ano na ang nangyari.

the bubbling issue happened to me... i changed first the lower rad hose. no good until i decided to change the HG. no bubbles so far.

my sincere apology. i forgot to mention sir miked that its your inputs in the other thread that made me decide to buy the lower hose, although i did not install it immediately because i was convinced then that my problem was a HG one... nonetheless, my sincere thanks to you too albeit belayed ... cheers

ikaw pala yun sir phezthie...ayos lang yun...if i can be of help, why not? no need to apologize since it's a forum...

masalimuot talaga ang troubleshooting at maintenance ng mga sasakyan natin...it's a trial and error procedure at magastos lalu na kung hindi mechanically inclined ang isang tao. ang tendency e lolokohin lang ng mekaniko kadalasan. but there are still trusted mechanics around us kahit papano. but there are ways to minimize the cost like asking around first gaya sa mga forum na ito.

in sharing, we gain more knowledge and strength....

but we cannot close our eyes that some are not really giving the right approach to a given problem. if not complicating it, they are simply advertising... that is the reason why i do praise those who help and share their knowledge without any reservation or expectation in return...

cheers and kudos to all of you ..

mga sir

patulong naman

car: Nissan


on way back to Manila galing kami ng Urdaneta, pagkapasok sa Dau , biglang umangat ung temp( above half) pero hindi 3/4
so ito ginawa ko
pinahinga muna saglit sa tabi mga 15mins.. then check water reservoir nagbawas pati ung sa Radiator (good thing meron kaming dalang tubig )

after that pinaander ko na tas ala pang 2mins bigla ulit tumaas ung temp.. so ginawa ko binagalan ko takbo hangang maka exit kami sa san Fernando , sa gas station binuhusan ko ng binuhsan ng tubig ung radiator (pero pinalamig ko muna before binuhusan) then we rest again for another couple of hours just to make sure na malamig nga makina, and check the radiator hindi naman nagbawas, pero pansin ko hindi umiikot ung fan. so since walang mekaniko don wala ako mapagtanungan. so decided na umalis don , kasi nung umalis kami don hindi namna na umangat above 1/2 so dumeretso kami ulit sa nlex, pagkapasok sa nlex umangat ulit , buti na lang malapit kami sa gas station. tapos may mga nagpapahinga na mga patrol don, so nagtanong na ako sa mga nagpapatrol kung meron silang kakilalang mga mekaniko, buti na lang meron

- pagdating ng mekaniko ito ginawa
- check water pump (okay)
- check thermostat, but since wala ng thermostat so okay lang daw . tinanggal na kasi dati
- tapos nag high rev.. mga 3mints tska gumana ung fan.. ang sabi ung water sender sira na raw di na raw sumisipa kaya nagkaakaroon ng delay sa fan which na un daw ang magiging effect an overheat
- pero merong slight bubble tinanong ko baka head gasket sabi nya kasi pag head gasket yan pag start mo pa lang bubulwak na
so i assume na hindi sya head gasket since pag start hindi naman bumulwak
- ginawa ng mekaniko - rekta na ung fan



Tanong ko

pag Head gasket ba ang tama.. pag start pa lang (walang rev) eh dapat bubulwak ung tubig?

kasi this morning.. check ko tubig sa radiator and reservoir okay naman but nag rev ako na naka open ung radiator (walang cap) eh bumulwak ung tubig pero sa umpisa lang ung bulwak kahit tuloy tuloy ang rev..

may bubble din sya pero nawala din , nag cicirculate din ung tubig
ung sa mga hose nya walang pressure.. hindi matigas, tapos pag pinisil mo bubulwak ung tubig



is this normal or due for HeadGasket na?
