It sounds like your coolant reservoir and rad need to be looked into
(literally) and topped up. It probably runs great for the first five
minutes then acts up, right?
You've probably been overheating your Honda so check the owner's manual
and start doing these 'checks' for yourself.

Buy a gallon of Honda Premix coolant too. Never put tap water in a Honda
rad. It's called Hondacide.
