Honda Question

Make sure the water pump is working.

BTW its a honda, its going to burn oil. leak oil. use oil. Mine has 266k on it and i have to add at least 1 quarts between oil changes. (1.5 months)

Ive overheated my b18 on more than one occasion. My wife drove it up and down the glen McConnell in the red.

Before you rip the head off do some diagnostics to make sure its a head gasket. That SOHC will be fucking pie to fix if it is the head gasket. Mine is DOHC and is harder to do but was still easy as fuck.
