Replying to: wucka (Oct 09, 2008 10:33 am) Ask them to explain why they think it is blown. Are you losing coolant? Do you get white smoke in the exhaust? Most likely what you have is a malfunctioning thermostat or cooling fan relay or fan itself. If anyone ever added a non-Honda coolant there is a chance that the water pump has been ground down by the silicates in non-honda coolants.
