93 civic dx hatchback probs need help please

ok every thing in my car runs great my tranny shifts great it starts with out a prob but only a small but very huge prob i think is happenning to my car.

i reloaded my radiator with fluid the other day and started up the car, i noticted that my temp. gauge was rising very fast to "H" i popped the hood open and noticed that there was a light steam type of smoke coming from my headers, i am a bit scared,


do u think i blew a head gasket or something ?

or would i just have to replace my headers ?

could it be maybe the gasket for my header/exhaust is screwed up.

please need info asap,


also any body got a wide body kit they want to sell me for a 93 honda civic hatchback ?

pull the oil cap off and look at the underside. if it looks grey and foamy you have water in your oil which usually means a bad head gasket. are you low on coolant or more specifically do you lose coolant quickly?

Or you could try correctly bleeding the coolant system of air.
