    oo nga eh. far as i can see, ito ang weakness ng mga honda, prior to year 2001.

    thermostat, radiator, thermoswitch, mga fans, aircon at pang ilalim.

    the engines, body, styling, space, are all excellent, though. ride comfort is good too.

    I had this problem before.
    I had almost replaced everything (water/coolant, thermostat valve, including new radiator) but it all boiled down to the thermostat sensor that sticks to the engine.

    It senses the temperature and turns on/off the cooling system.
    If it is broken it will not accurately gauge when to turn on your cooling system.
    Have it replaced but only use original, I repeat, original thermostat sensor.
    This will solve your problems.

    Do not have your thermostat valve taken out.
    You will need it when driving in high altitude cool places like Tagaytay and Baguio since the engine performs at its best when the temperature needle is in the middle.

    Congrats bro. I had the same problem. Di ko makita kung saan ang problem. Minsan ok..minsan bigla bumababa water sa radiator..Then later on I found a pinhole leak at the neck of the radiator top cover. Kaya once na pinalitan ko..problem was solved. running now for years.
