Excellent detailed video Jim. You sir are a good honest mechanic Thanks again
Ty for this video. I’m a 25 year old woman and was able to do this on my 2012 Civic with no issue thanks to you and several other repair videos I’ve watched. I’ve replaced my blower motor, engine air filter, and now my thermostat thanks to helpful people like you giving us these gems. This was my first repair that I’ve done under the hood. I was intimidated at first but once I got going I found the confidence to continue. Thank you for saving me money and keeping me educated on my car. I love my civic! These cars are so reliable and relatively inexpensive and easy to repair when issues crop up. I’m a Honda owner for life. Only ever driven Honda’s and they’ve never failed me. 💁🏽♀️💙
Look I'm gonna tell you like I told my 16 Year old daughter it's all common sense and when you do big jobs like a head gasket what you take out lay it out on cardboard and lable it and you can put it back together if you don't lose anything lable things and take pictures if need be I been mechanicing for 20+ years and i still take pictures and lable things makes life easier and no mistakes
Hey Jim - 'way chill walkthrough. Thank you very much for sharing - well done. :)
Great video, on my 2002 acura el, I am loosing coolant from radiator going to reservoir container instead opposite. Is that thermostat. thx
If my civic is leaking coolant near the driver side of the motor, what is the most likely cause?
could be a cracked block or head gasket. I'm leaning towards cracked block. Could be a hairline crack somewhere that will be a pain in ass to find unless you use some leak dye in collant to find out where it might be. If that's the case, the motor is junk. Cant be welding onto an aluminum motor. Could maybe slow to down with a head gasket sealer, but ultimately that's a bandaid at best.
Great video Jim! Thanks!
Do i need silicone for the housing?
What does it mean when the top hose is hot and the bottom hose is cool?
I would recommend checking the thermostat first
Your video was spot-on and excellent! I am helping out a friend with his car-thermostat and now I can do it with confidence, thank you, E #TheHumanSwissArmyKnife
Glad it helped!
Is it common that an aftermarket thermostat is smaller than OEM?
No they should be the same size.
Is it really necessary to burp the coolant after?
Yes, I would because that runs into the system. If the car is overheating, I'd espiecally do it then. I wouldnt put more than 20minutes into burping the system with the heat on full blast and car running. Make sure the fans turn over as well cause that could be cause for overheating engine. If that's your situation. Worse case is, head gasket. Which, these motors are known for blowing. Get job done & you'll be good for another 100k+ miles unless the motor develops a crack then its junk.
Good Diag. And Repair 😀
