First, make sure it's completely full of coolant. Fill the radiator, start the car and and warm it up with the radiator cap left off. When it's warm, check the coolant level again to see if it needs more. Sometimes air gets trapped in the engine and you have to run the car to get it out. However, if that all checks out OK I'd suspect the thermostat got put in upside down accidently. It's an easy mistale to make. Hope that helps.
The thermostat in a 1992 Honda Accord is found in the thermostat housing. The thermostat housing can be found by following the lower radiator hose.
where is the thermostat on a 1997 Honda accord i have never seen one in the bottom radiator hose
The upper radiator hose is attached to the thermostat housing.
follow the lower radiator hose
Follow the upper radiator hose to the engine. The fitting the hose is attached to contains the thermostat.
Had the same problem on my 1991 accord. Replace the thermostat, gasket, and radiator cap. Also, get a gallon of coolant if your current coolant has been in there for more than three years. The thermostat is in the engine block. Simply drain coolant, remove the radiator hose from the engine - the hose that goes from the bottom of the radiator into the engine. There may also be a small spount that bolts into the block, remove the bolts and there is the old thermostat.
If you follow the lower radiator hose to the engine block, it will lead you towards the thermostat housing (inside there is the thermostat),
located at the block where the top radiator hose connects to it.
The thermostat in a 1992 Honda accord lx is located in housing that can be found when you follow the upper radiator hose back and finding where it connects to the engine.
Where the upper radiator hose connects to the engine you will find the thermostat.
there are two hoses coming from the radiator. the one on the bottom has the thermostat at the end near the back of the engine.
Trace your top radiator hose to the thermostat housing, it will have three bolts in it and be somewhat rounded.
