Default Still Overheating...

Ok guys, i bought a koyo rad new, and relocated the radiator switch. The car runs at a constant 175 degrees ferenhight. Fans are only coming on when i turn a/c on. Im pretty sure that water is going to and from the motor, but i could be wrong. Is that where my problem lays? What temp does the rad switch take to turn the rad fan on? Sorry to keep bothering everyone, but i really cannot afford a new motor if this thing overheats too much.
PLEASE Help me.
Thanks,
CLPS2K

You got air in the system bud. Did you bleed the air out? there is a bleed screw on the intake manifold to purge the air out. Check the under the hood forums for a picture of it, but it looks just like a bleed screw on a brake caliper.

I had air in the system in my corvette. It took a week of bleeding to get it out. BTW LT1 Corvette=worlds worst cooling system.
good luck with yours, i agree, it just sounds like some air in the system

Hondas are very sensitive to air in the system . Being an aluminum engine they get hot fast too .
