Re: accord overheating
Raj, not sure if you know, but this newsgroup sure has had a
lot of reports of failed radiators in c. 1990s Hondas. Seems
like early 1990s Hondas are on their 2nd or 3rd, typically,
by this point. 'Cause it's one of the bigger ticket items in
your list of repairs below, I would not feel bad about
spending the bucks on it.

My '93 Accord got its second rad in 2000, and it was about due for its third
when I traded it in a couple months ago.
