so i stoped off at my house, droped something off, got back in and started dirving... didnt get 10 feet before the engine started sputtering and i saw smoke coming out of the hood so i pulled over and killed it.......


i open the hood...... anti freeze EVERYWHERE... and the small coolant hose that goes from the engine to the intake manifold got disconected..... and that was a bitch to reconect, very tight fit.....

so i fix it.... wipe up as much anti freeze as i can.... and start driving again...... seems fine..... doesnt sputter or anything......

i look down at my temp gauge, and ITS AT THE TOP

so i IMMEDIATLY turn off the car and coast into a parking lot..... everything seems fine, and the a little bit of usual smoke thats to be expected from getting liquid on hot things is still comin off.. but everything seems fine.....

i run the car with full heat blasting and the temp bar stays in the middle.... but then as soon as i think its safe to drive, the thing goes up to high again....


HOPEFULLY.... its just that the temp senser got spashed and is getting different readings or something..... anythhoughts?
