Default Antifreeze all over

Anybody ever have the sending unit for the temp guage in the cluster pop out of the side of the radiator? Mine did today and puked about a gallon and a half of **** everywhere.

No temp gauge in radiator. There is a low coolant level sensor in there though. LT1 has two temp sensors, one in waterpump and one in driverside cylinder head.

Anyway, Tons of coolant everywhere you say? Well, could try and shield or cover any important electronics and use some engine cleaner spray stuff. I used a heated pressure washer once on mine with the engine running, haha... Sounds really bad but worked REALLY good and no harm done to electronics.

Thats it then...i just saw a sensor of some sort and figured it to be temp guage.

I'll probably hose it off at a carwash lol. She's gettin a full detail next week anyhow since I won a certificate at a car show.
