on 6/5/2008 I have a Honda Accord 1997 model. When the car is driven with the A/C switched on for about half an hour, the engine overheats and the temp. needle start moving towards the red. I had shown to couple of mechanics but to no avail. Can some body help me in rectifying the fault.

Thanks

I had shown it to couple of mechanics but unable to correct it. Can somebody throw some light what I have to look for to correct this problem.

on 12/10/2007 In addtion to going slow, try to keep your rpm gauge between 2000 and 2500. This will keep the fan belt spinning fast enough to the effectively cool the engine. Much more than that may put the engine under more stress and cause heat to build up.

on 12/7/2007 This works great no matter what the car as long as the hose or thermostat is not too far gone. Use this trick in reverse when heating up your car in the winter. Every time you turn on the heater it is pulling heat from your engine to heat the air. Turn off the heater when you start your car and it will warm up faster.
