My temp gauge(BHG gauge) went up higher than normal... and it made a water fall sound. I know its not a BHG, but what would cause that kind of sound and a random rise in temp?

Get the coolant system pressure tested...check your cap and thermostat for proper operation.

+1 for listening to jdub...

Out of curiousity, how do you know it's not a BHG? I hate to panic you or jump to conclusions, but if you want to FOR SURE whether or not it's a BHG, get the "block test" where the color temp of the test fluid changes from blue to yellow in the presence of combustion gasses...

Just trying to help...
