So this started last week. I changed the thermostat. Then I get everything back together and notice the weep hole on the water pump leaking like crazy. So I change the water pump last night. Still overheating. Bled the system twice to be sure I wasnt a chucklehead, no luck. The water isnt really churning in the radiator while the car is running so Ill change the radiator tonite. Also changing belts. Anything else in the area while everythings out I should look at replacing to save myself grief down the line?

this happened to me three days ago, but i just replaced the water pump and thermostat and flushed the system and i was okay. when your car overheats, check the radiator and see if theres any coolant in there. what you can do for a TEMPORARY fix is get radiator leak stopper, and fill ur radiator to the top with coolant. It's what i did and my car was good for about 300-400 miles until I had to just fixed the damn problem with the water pump+ thermos.
good luck
