That's good news, Jay!

After working on autos for almost 60 years, there are two rules I have devised for myself:

1. After doing fluid change of any kind, check for leaks.

2. After doing any kind of work at all, road check car.

These practices have saved me from having problems a number of times. Hope this experience won't deter you from DIY later. Just chalk it up to experience and watch it next time.

Good luck.
