Re: 97 Accord - Extreme Overheating

Ever see that video where the guys are trying to destroy a Civic motor? They run it with no radiator, doing a brake torque bouncing off the rev limiter for several minutes straight....then pour a 2 gallon bucket of water into the crankcase and floor it, just screaming, until it vent steam out the cap hole like a locomotive...still runs...hold it wide open for like another 4 minutes straight (with no oil or cooling system) until it finally, SLOWLY starts to seize...and locks up.

A few minutes later, it fires up again...! Sounds like hell, but they drive it around....amazing...
