1993 civic over heating(d16z6)

[NateGibson]

I keep loosing coolent causing it to over heat on me. We found that it was leaking from the thermostat so we replaced that, and still over heated. Replaced a few hoses(some cracked due to changing the thermostat) and the radiator, still over heating.

I am blowng white smoke out of the exhaust when I get on the gas(white = coolent?).
From what I've reaserched its either the head gasket or the exhaust gasket.
You guys agree? Any way I can find out for sure if thats the problem or not?



I can't find any place in the engine bay where I'm leaking coolent so I'm out of ideas.. :(:lame:

[that one guy]

you just described a blown head gasket.

[lowNslow]

look at your oil see if theres coolant (milky color)
look at you coolant see if theres oil (dirty looking)


either way im 99% sure you have a blown HG

[crxb16t]

head gasket for sure.

head gasket, ftw!!
make sure you take your cylinder head to the mchine shop, make sure it holds compression and get it milled.

[b20sol]

if u want any help with it lmk

[rotneg]

not necessary to get head milled just needs to be checked to make sure its not warped must be done with precision tools though

[922los]

Correct. No need to spend da money to get it milled unless da head is warped. Also if u been overheating for a while and u fix da head and it still overheats u probably have a cracked block/cylinder.

[ek coupe]

you sir probably have a blown head gasket and when you get it done make sure that your head and block is ok
