First of all I would like to say thaks for the reply back. How can I tell if it is circulating properly? Do this sounds like blown head gaskets. Acura said it is not leaking and the water pump is not leaking this does not neccesarry means that the water pump is not bad?

Hi there,

To check if the heater is circulating, warm up engine, turn heater to high, while engine is running feel both heater hoses, they should both be hot to touch, if one hot and the other not, heater tap or controller may be faulty, check this first.
