Engine Cooling problem
1996 Honda Accord 4 cyl Two Wheel Drive
----------------------------------------------------------------
ive replaced 2 radiators in a 6 month period of time,they
both have melted at the base where the hoses are..the shop i took it too says it is the head gasket, could this be possible when i have no smoke comeing out of the tail pipe? and prior too the melt down the car runs at normal temp...could it be that the 96' engine design would be too hot for a plastic radiator? please answer my question ASAP
