....found the leak, the hard way, was going to AZ to get mah shit, to do the thermo... and came out of a stoplight kinda hard.... pop, white smoke...well, the LIM bypass line was the leak, but the culprit for the air getting back into the system was the heater core outlet... that metal line blew out of the LIM, and made a nice smokeshow, no damage done, i shut it right off, never even went past 1/2... and it's fixed (i forgot a nut lol)

nice do not forget the nut this time.

we will need to see alright? the temp still runs high, but i think it's my needle... i'll need to recalibrate it, and see, does NOT overheat anymore, it goes to about 1/2 way between 1/2 and 3/4th, and stays... but it runs at 1/2...wierd eh?
