Coolant Problems
92 Acura Integra, 4 door, b18a1, bone stock motor, 276k miles

Tryin to get some different opinions.

Bout a week ago everytime I stopped the heat would go bye bye until I moved again. Checked the coolant and there seemed to be enough so I figured the t-stat was takin a shit. Replaced the t-stat and gasket and topped off the coolant. Heated like a champ and was runnin better. Last night I pulled into the good old DQ and when I stopped I noticed it was a little cold in the car. Felt the heat and it was piss warm. Got home and checked the coolant and it was low. There isnt a coolant leak from anywhere I can tell so I dont know where the coolant would be going.

Any thoughts?

Didnt even think of that...lol. Good possibility. Ill prob check that this weekend. Was hopin the motor would last for another 2 months till I replace it with a b18b1.

I do know that there is no oil in the coolant when I filled it back up.

look under your oil fill cap, if there is a white milky substance there is coolant in your oil someplace.

Are the blinkers still working? Did you check to make sure the spare tire has air?
