    Problem 92 Accord

    i have been taking a apart my motor trying to repalce my head gasket becasue i thought it blew....well i got to it and its fine....What else could it be................This all started with i noticed antifreeze inn my driveway alot of it it was almost empty. So i thought it was a hose so i replaced it. Couple days later did it again but now it was overheating very quickly...when driving it to my friend shop it just shut down after i shifted into 2nd. ..than hasnt started since

    did you ever do a pressure test? That should have given you the exact location of the leak...


    dont want to scare you, but the block might be cracked...

      Ya man i dont know why you would drive it.

      Should have had it towed.

      Id fear the worst. Inspect your motor very carefully.

          Clean everything up and look for a leak. Dont jump to conclusions when it might be the gasket to the thermostat housing. Check all hoses for any cracks/leaks. Check temp sensors and make sure they are snug, check EVERYTHING before you jump to getting a new motor, from what i remember, you put alot of time into this one.

            yea Im gonna look over everything. I did put alot of work into it so it would nice to not have to do a swap. It would prolly take me about a week to do the swap. I found a 1990 accord for $300 that needs a tranny. It has about 122,000 on it.

              would this cause it not to start?

                It should start no problem, but if the gasket is blown it could be pissin out rad fluid.
