Best Answer

An engine can overheat from several reasons. A faulty thermostat is the most common cause, provided that there is nothing else wrong. A plugged radiator or a faulty water pump can also cause the problem.

Once an engine has overheated the head will often warp causing the coolant to "blow out" of the cooling system and making it impossible to keep running without overheating.

Damaged hoses or other leaks can cause overheating as well.

Your CRX may be overheating due to low coolant, or possibly a worn out water pump. I would suggest checking the fluid levels and replacing the water pump because when mine let go on my 92 Civic DX i had to get a overhaul because it fried my piston rings :/ good luck
