Re: 94 Civic Eratic Idle Problem - Have read all posts still no luck!
I have cleaned the cooling system 3 times now flushing it out one of
those times. Topping it off each time and letting it idle with the heat
full blast.
I have a new symptom now.
When I start the car it immediately starts hissing. I am positive this
is due to a vacuum leak somewhere but I cannot pin point exactly where
it is comming from. The car is able to run and drives great, however
after running the car for say at least 15 minutes when you turn it off
some coolant will spill out. I assuming its from the same place that is
hissing. It seems to be under the intake manifold somewhere however I
cannot see down in there far enough to find the leak.
Anybody know of any commong vacuum leaks or hosing that came come
undone easily?
Thanks.
