Hi Guys!
Need all your help and expert opinion.
My second-hand (or used car) honda civic 97 vtec model has a new
radiator but the engine gets hot when my aircondition is turned on for
quite sometime. I just had the aircondition system "overhauled",
meaning all have been refreshed, and also have a new motor fan. Though
the fan is not original honda, but it works really fine. The fan of the
radiator turns on when the engine is hot. When I drove around 50kms,
the reading at my meter starts to increase from midway to close to the
highest temperature allowed so I have to pull my car in the shoulder
everytime this happens.

There are no leaks I can observed from all hose lines and I observed
that the radiator fan does not turn on too long, only around a minute.
Is this normal?

I do not have problem with overheating if the aircondition system is
not turned on while driving for an hour, this only happens when i turn
the aircondition system on.

Other known fact was that the previous owner of the car (I just
recently learned) have experienced total overheating twice but the
engine was not damaged.

I still don't want to dispose the car and all i want is to fix it.

Looking forward for all your reply and comments. Please email me at
