first off, Hey Scottie!! love what your doing man, your videos are great. anyways, 1996 honda accord 6cyl manual trans,so a few days ago i had the very unfortunate experience of slamming a monstrous pot hole. popped the tire and pinched my downpipe about half closed right on the bend but no cracks or major damage to anything underneath. no damage to the oil pan or radiator( after very thouroughly examining). when it starts, the idle currently sits at about 1k (little higher than normal). until the enigine heats up to normal running temp. after about 10 minutes of being on and warming up, smoke begins to come out of exaughst. gradually getting worse as time goes on and car heats up. at about the ten minute mark is when the engine temp drasticly starts to rise. i watched your video on the radiator fan, but i do not have those single wire testers. i plan on going out and getting some tomrrow, but my question is...... do you have any idea what hitting the pothole could have done to result in my radiator fans not working anymore?? 

 Thank you for your time- Nick C

Well if white smoke comes out the exhaust it's burning coolant a million things going to happen to make the car overheat crunch any kind of the radiator or lines but one smoke starts coming out the exhaust the engine has been damaged and head gaskets starting to blow
