That is not directly related to your issue but my 91 Accord doesn't really
seem to warm up in winter unless i'm doing city driving, on the highway the
temp gauge stays at cold and the air inside is coming out kinda cold too,
even when the heater is at max. Of course it's not a problem when you live
in Texas but I got kinda chilly on my last 4000 miles winter round trip to
Canada! When I'm in real winter weather, everything is normal when i'm in
heavy traffic or in the city, a lot of red lights, makes the temp gauge
raise a little with nice warm air coming out, but as soon as I pick up some
speed it falls back to "Cold" and the air coming in the cabin is not warm at
all. I am curious what causes that... Even if I will probably not fix it.
