''95 accord LX overheats - 6/25/2008 2:14:44 PM    devsgood   Posts: 1 Score: 0 Joined: 6/25/2008 Status: offline The car overheats when driving with A/C on.  It will go back to normal temp if idling with A/C on.  Fans both work under hood and thermostat was just replaced.  Upper hose has water flowing thru it once engine''s warm.  Recently put new coolant in (problem was happening prior to change) and bled the system properly.  I''m stumped so any help diagnosing this would be much appreciated.  Thanks!

Take a look in the DIY section for diagnosing overheating .... there are probably a few more things to look at in there as well as diagnostic measures that will help you find the problem .... good luck! _____________________________ 2006 Scion TC (ZPI-18G pending) 2000 V6-AT (RIP 3G) Temp Search thanks to Finch13 (in reply to devsgood) Post #: 2
