It's an easy job.

Replace the hoses and thermostat while you're at it.

Unbolt the four screws up top, undo the hose clamps, and if it's an auto, the transmission lines near the bottom. It lifts right out. You'll have to unbolt the fans.

Make sure you use Honda coolant, which comes pre-diluted.

The bleeder screw is on the thermostat housing where the upper house enters the block.

thx for reply... her boyfriend assisted me and we changed it out this past Sat in about 2 hours. Was rusted & eaten through beyond belief. Left everything else & did check hoses, but they looked good. She is hopefully getting new used vehicle in next 6 months. Car has 173K miles now... wow
