Default Re: overheating?

Lots of things. Is the fan coming on? Do you see a leak? Is there coolant
at the tail end of the exhaust pipe? If there is a leak, and you let it get
low enough, the "boiling" now could be the cooling system getting rid of
vestiges of air from the engine. Carry a jug of Honda Genuine coolant, and
if the level in the overflow tank goes down more, then you might have a
leak. If you ever over heated the engine, you might have a head gasket
leak.

Saludos cordiales,

Earle
