check for leaks, cooling system compression for a week or so. keep your eye on the temp guage. if it only happened once u might not have anything to worry about. strange thing happened to me too a few days after my ze went in. i spoted my temp guage going up so i blasted the heater. the guage went right back down to normal like the thermostat got stuck or something. ever since the temp guage never goes above normal, and my heater gets only lukewarm at the hottest setting when it used to cook me.

Sounds like it stuck closed the first time, then unstuck, and now its stuck partially open.
