1997 Honda Civic 4 cyl Two Wheel Drive Manual

i Just noticed that my Burb tank for the rad is extremely full and i have not added any fludis to it in over a month.

My top rad hose collapes' in when the engine is not running .

The car does not over heat at all.

Hi TrevorHughes,

The radiator cap is bad. The pressure valve is not working to specs and replacement is necessary.
