Hey Guys, i have a question..

My engine/coolant temp. guage on my GSR never goes up to the halfway point like any of my other cars. It always stays a wee bit below halfway...unless i turn the A/C on, or really start rompin on it, it wont hit the halfway point. Is this ok? normal?

Thanks!

Jimmy

 

That's normal. My radiator has a slight leak and it doesn't even reach the halfway mark.

 

dude.. why would you think something is wrong.. your car is running cooler.. cooler = better!

 

I'm going to be mega super anal and make a comment about this. Your car does have an "ideal" operating temperature, which is why it isn't good to use "racing" thermostats on a daily driver. They open at too low of a temp (160 degrees) and can prevent your engine from warming up properly.

 

Well, good to know my car wont be overheating soon...

So, you guys saying that i may have a slight coolant leak somewhere?

 

Probably not, but Integra radiators are notorious for leaking. It'll happen eventually. Just watch for sweet smelling green puddles.
