loose water pump pulley and overheating engine
When a water pump is bad it will leak. There is a hole in the pump were water will leak out of.
Faulty pump, return it for another.
Yes it could.
No, but faulty water pump or thermostat can.
I presume you mean car water pump? If the water pump is faulty the car will over heat and the temperature gauge will go up. Make sure that there is enough coolant in the radiator, the radiator or the hose pipe is not leaking and the radiator cap is not faulty, as all of these faults can cause overheating. Once you have excluded these then you can blame the water pump.
Yes, a faulty water pump can cause engine overheating. The water pump is responsible for circulating coolant throughout the engine and radiator to maintain optimal operating temperatures. If the pump fails, coolant flow is disrupted, leading to insufficient cooling and potentially causing the engine to overheat. Regular maintenance and timely replacement of a failing water pump can help prevent this issue.

You will know if you have a leaky water pump because it will be leaking coolant out of the water pump.
no if the pump is leaking it is bad and nedds replacing
This can be caused by a number of things. # A shortage of coolant # faulty thermostat # faulty radiator cap # a blocked radiator # faulty water pump # faulty fan # leaky hoses # cracked head or block.
A faulty rad fan could have the same effect if pump isn't leaking or making some sick noise its fine thermostat is cheap and easy to replace so go ahead and do it just to eliminate it as the problem good luck.
