My 96 JXI slowly kept creeping hotter and hotter, til it finally overheated every time the car got hot. Discovered it was the AF filler neck! It was alminum and it had pin point corosion holes in it, and under pressure, steamed out my af, and also caused over heating. I replaced the neck, added AF, bounced the car by the front bumper a few good times to get any air bubble to rise and go out, then capped it up, and never had a problem since!!!! WORTH checking if you have overheating issues!!!
