Default Why Is It Over Heating !!!!!!! Why

I have a 94 acura integra ls, today i was driving and stop at a light and looked at the temp gauge and it started to over heat. the engine has like only 7000 miles on a rebuild . Every thing has bin replaced on the engine and also the rad too. I thot it was maybe the fan, so i jumped the relay and the fan work , so then i drove with the fan on and its still doing it .

Can you plez give me some suggestions TR plez and thank you

Recheck coolant level. Most of the time after driving for a day or so the air bubbles will work their way back into the radiator allowing you to add more coolant.

Could also be a faulty thermostat. Some of the cheaper ones don't freeze open when they go bad. Coolant though is the first thing to check.

hey bro the best way to fix this is turn on your car take off the rad cap and squeeze the upper rad hose.. this will bring all the air out of the lines allowing you to add the right amount of coolant. You'll see what Im talking about when you do it just pump it and it should bring all the air out. It happened to both mine and my girls cars thats how I fixed them both. But I would check thermostat too just in case cuz if its jammed shut then that equals big problems down the road
