my fail...
 
ok so the other day i installed my new jbr intake, egr delete, and tb tig and coolant bypass kit. well my retarded ass didnt tuck the wires in very well... i have been driving like a grandma until i get the intake calibrated, i dont think ive even hit boost. well i pull into my driveway to a small bit of smoke. panicking i open the hood. turns out my fan rubbed a very small hole in the coolant line, spilling it all over inside the bay. im hoping the smoke was just coolant on the block. i hurry up and checked my coolant temp with ap, it was at 205. so if i get a new coolant line and some fluids back in, no harm done right? fingers crossed... fuck im dumb...

you'll be fine.

You're not the first nor last to mess up a coolant line. You'll be ok.

Been there done that, except I cut mine completely off. Getting that replacement line sucked.

So I replaced the line earlier and refilled the coolant. But before I was at 187* all the time, now I'm at 192-196 and it started climbing when I stopped?... Could this be the air working out of the system? I'm paranoid now lol...

Also, I'm not sure my fans working. My gf's dad sprayed the coolant out of my engine bay with a hose. I'm now wondering if it shorter it out?
