Car overheating, might throw it off a cliff.

Hey, car is overheating!

Replaced the head gasket, all hoses, pressure tested everything and all that stuff

(Might add its a DC2 VTi-R Integra)

Still overheats (Not as much as before I replaced the head gasket)

Was driving up a hill the other day, and the car heated up to over half, had to turn the heater up to get it all sucked out, does anyone know how to resolve my overheating issue? It isn't as bad recently, cause I replaced the hoses and head gasket, however it still heats up on hills and stop start traffic.

Thanks

could also be a blocked radiator.

Are the top/bottom pipes hot? Is radiator turning on? Is thermostat working?

yeh as sed above check that the bottom hose is hot. if the car has been running for over 10-15mins and the bottom hose is hot at all then ur thermostat is stuck closed

[chauster]

you replaced head gasket before replacing thermostat????????

Money well wasted

Run the car without a thermostat if it still overheats its your radiator blocked.

Do the fans turn on?

Before I got the head gasket replaced, I got the thermostat done because it was seizing. I ran it without one for a while, still heated up, so I just got a replacement one anyway. I had all this typed up before, full explanation but the computer I was on at school messed up.

The mechanic said he fixed the fans, as they were broken, yet to check them myself, the car only seems to heat up in traffic, and on hills, not nearly as bad as before I got the head replaced
