???Another Overheating Accord????
Ok its a 91 accord has about 225,xxx miles on it. The Other day its was a hot one 100 degrees, i was driving around the city just streets no freeways with the A/c on for awhile , and i went to go to Carls Jr. as i was in the drive throw lane i notice my temp reached around 3/4 and i turned off the a/c and lets say 3 minutes later still sitting in that long ass line the car went back to normal temp, went home looked at my coolant it was low, weird because i just swapped the water pump and timing belt like 2k miles ago with brand new fluid,checked and there was no leaks,So then i put some coolant in.My question is if the a/c condensor is bad can it overwork the radiator and cause it to runs hotter thus losing/burning fluid?Keep in mind my a/c works ok its not the coldest prolly cause of the condensor.
I remeber 1 year back my motor fan went out and i i took it to a shop and they said that the a/c condensor was bad and caused the Fan motor to crap out and i havent replaced it i know i'm retarded i should of. Any clues?

check your thermostat. it could be sticking closed. so the coolant is in the system its just stuck when the thermostat sticks closed. coolant doesnt normally burn off. a car that old is going to have leaks even small ones in the cooling system. check hose connections. the ac on will make the car work harder but it doesnt affect antifreeze levels. u can check the fans connections. could be a fan relay? with the ac on both fans should be running. if its off only the radiator fan would be running.
Well i found out what was wrong, a month back my jack off sister put a crappy ass phone car charger in my cars 12v lighter thing and it broke off in it and blew my interior light 15 fuse and i guess i check today and well my 15 fuse for my condensor fan so i changed it out and now the fan works. Thanks for the advice guys. Case closed! Next mission to change my a/c condensor
