hey sup.... i just got my engine rebuilt and put in the car..... i adjust the valves and replace new parts.. such as water pump and belts and ect.....
its run and start for teh first time...... valve was tapping so i readjust teh valve... i started up again and sound good....i check to make sure nutin is leaking... so i figure i test drive in front of the house.... run fine, clutch feel soft.. its a stage 3 but feel weird comparing to stock....
n e wayz.... i drove back and forth for couple of minute.. then when i was turning back i was still in 2nd gear and it stall out.... i try to start it again... it turn but it wont start.... i got smoke coming fromt eh engine bay...it was koolant leaking soemwhere... but also i fould out that b4 i test drive was that there was pressure build up in koolant... upper and lower hose was hard.... it look like its going to burst as pressure....i did let the car run for 4 minute b4 i test drive.... also there were white smoke when i was reversing... i tot it be moist since teh car havent been drivin for months.....
i hope that the head gasket not blown.. but from working on honda.... i never see this b4 was why there soo much pressure building up .... i replace the water pump and thermostrat... parts are from napa.... thermostat look diff. then stock.. but they say its for the car.... if teh thermostat is wont the upper host get hot? i mite be wrong? n e wayz.... if u need more infor.. let me know... but i really thank you for ur help and comment....
