Re: Possible overheating?

Your coolant froze!?! That's an extremely bad thing. Worst case scenario, the block is cracked. Lucky case scenario, you broke a coolant hose. Run a 50/50 mix of green antifreeze and water. If I was you, park your car inside for a few days to let the coolant melt, drain the cooling system, and then re-fill it back up and make sure that ALL the hoses are in good condition.

There are freeze plugs, but if you actually froze the block, you most likely fucked the water pump too.
