Well, I never really got the entire loop completed. I was pressure testing it by blocking the outlet w/ my thumb, and it was making popping sounds, but I released the pressure before it popped...prolly around 30psi or so (finger pressure tester...very accurate...NOT)...I didn't want to totally destroy it

Yes, the cooling system is under pressure (I remember rad caps are in the 1.2-1.7 bar range, or around 18-25ish psi), and this increases the boiling point of water...

I'm sick of waiting for Brian's how-to writeup...I betcha I'll be done long before him...(or maybe not...)
