hello I just recently got a 91 Honda Prelude SR and its fine in good condition my only problem is that after i finish driving it and bring it back the hood is hot and you can notice smoke if its raining due to the heat.

The H/C meter inside the Car reads it as about 45 - 50% of the way, Also sometimes after i park it up the car will be off but a fan will turn on under the hood.

Sorry i am bad with cars and this is my first one just not sure whats going on.

Thank you for your time and help its much appreciated!
 
The fan would engage if the engine is hot so that's normal but I'd pick up a anti-freeze tester from walmart etc and with the engine cold you the tester and find out how good the quality of the anti-freeze is and what it's mixed to.I'd have it mixed 50/50 or for at least -40.


Hope that helps and best of luck.By the way read the owners manual for the recommended anti-freeze to be used etc.
