94 acura integra gsr 5 speed. b16a swap 114,xxx miles.
my radiator have been draining alot and i would always have to refil it the last couple of month, at the same time my idle would be rough as well on 1500rpm-2000rpm. on high way speed it would stay at 2k rpm and ses light would come on until park and turned off till cooled. now all of a sudden at low speed while driving im smelling some kind of rubber or plastic burning, and white smoke or mist like coming out under my glove compartment, but i dont know from what or where??? im worried and scared but no fire??. i check under the hood, notice there was water splash due to snow melting. but no smoke coming from the engine. at that point im like WTH is going on???? this car runs good and engine have been good as well, with regular maintainance and regular driving from work home and running errans it is good to me. =(
i asked my neighbor who also have an integra and a rsx and he told me it could be the thermostat and something to do with the radiator, or water getting inside or touching the headers, no covers for my belt or cam gears.. im not sure of it as well as i am not firmiliar with honda/acura. and i need answers so pleaseeee can someone help me????
ps. while the smoke occur there was no ses,check engine light on. smell like burning rubber/plastic. ive check the ecu but nothing was damage or anyway..
