It's running hot because you are losing the coolant. Fix the leak, problem gone. Maybe just a hose leaking or you may need a new radiator.
It has a coolant leak Skippy, find it and fix it or take it to a mechanic. No one here can waive a wand and make it all better.
Of course it's going to run hot if you're leaking coolant. It's a 23 year old car. Radiator hoses are bound to crack or the water pump seals are worn out.
See a mechanic and get the car pressure tested to find out what part is leaking and replace the leaking part. It is most often a bad radiator.
SO have it checked
Could be your heater core leaking, water pump gasket blown, water pump bearings could of fallen out and broke their seal, unfortunately you haven't said where the coolant I'd leaking, wether you have creamy oil, or wether you haven't put the coolant cap on so we need more info to answer
- I rebuilt my honda eu3000is carb, and now it smoke a few minutes after starting. It has only 50 hours or so? I cleaned out some green slime from the carb bowl, and cleaned out the main jet. Then, put it all back together. Did I miss something in the re-assembly? It runs good, just smokes.
- Does power steering fluid get hot if the car is just running and the steering isn't being used? If the pump is just spinning, recirculating fluid and nothing else… Would it still get hot? I had to bypass the pump from the rack and have the fluid recirculate. Would the pump get hot from just spinning? I know 8th gen Honda's don't have a cooler for the power steering anyways.
- Why is coolant leaking from the ends of my top radiator hose on my 1999 honda civic? There isn't water leaking from anywhere else and it only seems to leak when the car has since cooled. It's never enough coolant for me to have to keep filling it up. I have changed the hose and it still seems to be leaking from the end seams. Any help is appreciated. d16y7 aluminum radiator 1.1 rad cap
