overheating
my friend just bought a 96 ex and it had overheating issues! coolent temp sensor was bad so we changed it. then it wasstill over heating so we checked the thermostat and there wasnt even one there so we put a brand new one in. so now you start the car and let it idle it wont overheat but when you start driving it will overheat. anyone have any ideas???? please help

as state din other threads take off the rad cap start the car let the fan cycle on a ferw times. this will release the air bubbles out. put back on the rad cap and you should be fine. you could also start the car and loosen the weep hole bolt by the thermostat area and have it like that til there is a steady steam of water coming out which indicates no air bubbles. re-tighten the bolt and you shoul be fine.
