Do you need a new engine if your Kia Rio overheated and you had the head replaced but now it overheats and there is water in the oil?

I think a "top overhaul" will do. They will just change a gasket which prevents the oil from leaking into the water.

Most definitely.
How do you add water to your car when it overheats?
Not a good idea to add water. You should add an engine coolant available from any auto parts store. You should never remove the radiator cap when engine is hot! Wait until the engine has cooled down then remove cap. Fill radiator with engine coolant, replace cap and then refill coolant reservoir. That procedure will get you to a garage where they will find out why it overheated in the first place.

The water pump for an s-10 engine is located on the front of the motor. The engine can be damages if it overheats due to a bad pump.
How do you know if you need your thermostat replaced?
If it doesn't open water /coolantwill not circulate and car overheats. If you drive without one mileage will decrease as engine won't be as efficient. Easy to replace I did one when I was 11 years old
Why 1999 Toyota Camry overheats after having a new water pump radiator and thermostat?
I've had this happen to me before. I had the water pump replaced after it had been leaking a little and my car overheated. We thought it might have been leaking again but turns out the mechanics had forgot to tighten something. I would have them look at it once more to make sure nothing is loose and leaking your coolant.
How can you tell if a fuse or thermostat or water pump needs to be replaced on a 1995 Mercury Tracer when the warning comes on when it is started and the engine overheated with water in the radiator?
Check engine. Is radiator really full? Does the rad. fan come on? Is the fan belt on water pump tight? If these things are ok, you probably need a new thermostat.
What is wrong with an engine that squealed then leaked radiator fluid and overheated?
Could be the water pump went out.

I had the thermostat radiator cap and radiator replaced on a 2001 Mitsubishi galant and it still overheats sitting at idle and while driving Any ideas on what the problem is?
have the engine timing checked. if the timing is wrong the engine will overheat, are you loosing coolant?is the fan working, is the water pump working?
Were could engine coolant be leaking from a 1997 Cavalier Z24 2.4l when it sits over night on the street?
It could be coming from the water pump, or from the bottom radiator hose. If it is the water pump, change it before the engine overheats. If the engine in any GM product overheats, you will likely be installing a new one or rebuilding the old.
