    h22a running hot n stumped

    iv replaced hoses, thermastat, got the fans working and she still runs hotter than normal. idk what the deal is everything looks good. can anyone help me identify this problem?

    When you say, "...got the fans working..." do you mean that the car ran without radiator fans for an extended period of time?

    Have you bled the system?

    Did you replace the water pump when you put the H22A in?

      Are you sure the thermostat was installed the right way? Install it backwards and it won't allow coolant to pass. I've made that mistake myself.

      Other than that, you may have a clog elsewhere, or even a failing water pump.

          I can barely understand what you are saying. Please use real words if you would like help fixing your car.

          "bleeding the system" means getting all air out of the cooling system (to put it simply).
          Be sure you installed the thermostat correctly.

          If you drove the car with no cooling fans, even in cooler weather, you may have caused damage.
          Check your oil to see if there's coolant in it (if it's milky, there is coolant in your oil.) Likewise, check for oil in your coolant.

            when i first did the swap i noticed the gauges would jump everywhere temp gauge going cold to hot, mph gauge jumping 5-10 mph while driving, but then everything started leveling out so i though it was "normal" maybe its just electrical?idk. i would really like to resolve this problem as soon as possible cuz the last thing i need is my car breaking down at 110 degrese nd my daughter in my car

              Nothing about that is "normal".

              The speedometer jumping would be related to the VSS, most likely. It could also be a faulty ground, or a failing gauge cluster.

                    If you really want some help around here, you might want to put some effort in what you write. Do you know what the Shift key does when you hold it down and type a letter? Do you realize that a sentence should have some form of punctuation at the end of it?

                    Here are some more tips:

                    nd = and
                    idk = I don't know
                    i = I
                    bc = because

                    Are you really that lazy to type out the entire word? It looks like a third grader wrote what I just quoted.

                    Also, when you type, if a little red line is under the word, it usually means it is spelled wrong. Try right-clicking and selecting the correct spelling.

                    Take the time to type what it is you want to know and you just might get better responses and help from people in the know.

                    If you can defipher your last post, I would be glad to help.
