Make sure you have fuel in the tank, and someplace to go?

I guess I don't think 190 is really high. With a pressurized cap the boiling point is probably 230 or more. Is something obviously wrong to you?

Some guys drill a 1/8" hole in the outer edge of their thermostats to let the water burp as it's getting filled. The bubbling sound you heard might have just been the coolant equalizing in the engine and radiator.
