had water coming out of the overflow pipe yesterday ,when i turned engine off it stopped ,temp gauge was only half way, please can someone tell me the steps to try first , before taking it to a garage and spending a fortune. cheers
,

If temp was low I would bet the rad cap :-) cheap fix, I had a similar problem.

ok i will try that first the rubber seal did look a bit rough, where is the best place to get one i have been on the net but can,t see one advertised , thanks,

to name a few.

quote part number 19037-KV3-003 or if they can't find it the newer part number is 19045MZ1621

not cheap though, about 25 quid from David Silvers.

...i thought I got mine from the local auto store???(here called repco, supercheap auto)15-20$ (like 8-10 pounds)?i definitely didn't have to buy it online...rad caps are pretty standard items aren't they? just had to match the size, pressure etc

thanks for part number, easy to find now.

hence why i said local bike shop in my list.

You can get some after-market parts as long as the pressure and size is the same.

The partnumber quotes for the genuine Honda part.
