Lack of water in you engine block. Lack of oil in your engine block. Can cause piston siege.
How do you keep your Chevy cavalier from running hot without the water pump?
You probably don't. The water pump is what circulates coolant through the engine block and the cooling system. The engine will soon overheat if the pump is not functioning. This is a bad thing ~
Why would your temperature gage read about 100 degrees while running for about 1 hour but when you turn the engine off it will reads about 200 degrees?
While the engine is running, the water is constantly circulating through the block, taking heat out of it, dumping the heat in the radiator with the help of the fan, then going back to the block once it's cool again. That's the way everything is designed to work, in order to carry heat out of the engine block and prevent it from glowing red and melting itself. When you turn the engine off, the water pump stops turning, and the circulation stops. The water that's inside the engine just sits there, and comes up to the temperature of the surrounding block, before the whole thing eventually cools down.
Why would a Temp gauge go to hot?
First determine if the engine is really running hot if it is check to see if you are low on water, or could be the thermostat is not opening.The thermostat allows water to enter the engine block after it reaches a certain temp.

What causes radiator to spurt water out while engine is running?
A hole in the radiator would do that, or a damaged radiator cap. It could be a cracked engine block that is allowing cylinder pressure into the cooling system, pressurizing the water until it breaks through a weak spot in the radiator.
Will water crack a engine block?
Yes. You can freeze the water, making it expand, or you can add cold water to a hot engine, shocking the block. You prevent freezing with antifreeze. You prevent shock by never adding water to a hot engine. If there is enough water in the engine to have the water pump provide circulation, you can add water SLOWLY, but you should really only add water to a hot engine when there is very little to add.
