    Will this damage anything?

    No, I would never put cold water in it after it is hot. I was going to let it flow through while it was cold and warming up. The water pump, and rad are brand new. Last week, I unhooked the upper and lower rad hose, "t stat out", and ran the garden hose, "engine off, and cold". It ran clear...
