Engine Cooling problem
1994 Honda Accord 4 cyl Front Wheel Drive Automatic

I have replaced the coolant sensor and temperature switch in the honda accord lx. The guage still bounces up and down. And currently the car is without a thermostat.

I was told I needed to prime the cooling system. I found the place to prime the system but have been unable to locate any instructions as to how to go about priming the system.

All you need to do is, while the car is cold, remove the radiator cap. Then start the vehicle, let it get to and beyond operation temp. Let the bubbles boil out of it and top off as necessary
