        Yep sorry about that,
        Firstly, there is no way this light is going off. When I have the time I will get Honda Bulbs and try it with those, but in the meantime the indicator is still on.
        Secondly, the hot starting issue is on the fence because I am waiting for a hot day and conditions to repeat the scenario to test if repairing the relay has helped or not.
        I will report back when I know these two things are sorted.
        Lastly, I was hoping I could add the coolant problem to this in the meantime while I await for the summary of the other two problems.

        Thanks

          Here are some video’s by Eric that should assit you with the cooling issue. Most cooling problems are due to air n the system.

            Hi Guys,
            getting back to the main issue of the topic! ‘Hot Start Problems’ I removed the main relay, and found some hairline cracks in a few of the pins. I re-soldered those so all I have to do is wait for another Hot day to see if it will play up.
            One other point I would like to ask, is I have an issue with coolant.. In the overflow bottle I usually top it up in between the lines of where it should have fluid. However after a few drives all the water disappears from the overflow bottle, but the radiator still has coolant in it when I remove the cap (when cold) as it is at the top. I had a compression test done on the car yesterday, and all cylinders a dead equal so no trouble there. Anyone have any idea? there is no water in the oil or combustion chamber as I removed the sparks and they seem ok. No water leaks on the ground either.

            Cheers
            Damien

              Also adding to my comment above ^^^^
              I did notice the other day after driving, the coolant in the overflow bottle was bubbling from the pipe going into it. Not sure if that was normal as being a hot day, but just thought I would add that. It wasn’t overheating though.

              The car is a 1993 Honda Accord U.S Wagon
              F22a Engine
              CB9 Chassis

                  Thank you dreamer for posting the link to the Bleeding a Cooling System and Diagnosing an Overheat video as this is what I suggest you do first anytime you have a cooling system issue especially on a Honda.
