I have a 94 prelude that i had the engine replaced in back in November. Everything was running fine, but the car would go past the middle point for temp when the car would sit for a while, but then it would go back to the middle point on its own.
Well, last saturday i was on a gravel rd and i peeled out and gravel kicked up and about 5-10 minutes later, i notice the temp gauge was all the way hot. I have changed the thermostat, blead the line, and refilled the coolant and the car gets hot is only about 1 minute. It literally goes from off and cool to all the way hot in about 60-90 seconds. Also, although the temp gauge is all the way hot, the radiator cap, plastic resovoir, no hoses, or the engine is hot. I take the radiator cap off and the coolant is not hot at all.
what is my issue. Please help?
94 Prelude overheating, but nothing hot under the hood. Change Thermostat already, what next?
Replace the temp gauge sensor and see if that's the culprit. Also, for $35 you can get a radiator cap with a build in temp gauge, so you can compare and see if your dash gauge is screwy.
