I'll check into it for pricing and what not. Are hoses from Advance Auto and etc. ok?

 

Yeah should be fine.

 

Hoses, OK. I guess I would use a dealer thermostat over a parts-store one.

 

Just got the radiator today. Will be getting the other parts as the $ comes in.

 

Might be replacing it tomorrow.

Few more questions since I cant get to my Haynes manual @ the moment.

Where is the bleed valve?
Where is the thermostat?

 

Follow the lower hose back to the cylinder head. The thermostat is squeezed in the middle of where the hose connects and the cylinder head.

Bleeder screw is right about that, it looks like a brake bleeder, but larger.

 

Thanks, just what I needed!

 

Uh....so I got my new hoses and thermostat....but one problem.

I got the thermo from Honda and it has the part # 19301-paa-306
Just double checked online and according to hondapartsnow.com it says it should be
19301-p08-316

Did they just change the part 3 or did the guy give me the wrong one?

grrrr

 

It's probably right, call up the service dept. and ask for the part number again so you can verify it.

 

They are closed

wtf, it has to be wrong. I looked on hondapartsnow.com and it is for the 98-02 accord. What an idiot. I told him 97 and then he asked me "97 accord right?"

I have googled both #'s and the part I have never comes up for the 5th gen accord. wow
