Engine Cooling problem
1997 Honda Civic 4 cyl Front Wheel Drive Automatic

the water pump & thermostat have been replaced the fans come on & the coolant level is fine. So if I flush it & theres no clog then what could the problem be?

Hi there,

If you have just flushed with a hose, that will not show if you have a number of blocked core tube, the radiator is made up of many tubes and you can still have flow with may blocked tubes, the radiator should be cleaned by a radiator shop to ensure that there are no internal blockages.
