The engine will usally overheat if your water pump is bad. If your engine is overheating, check your thermostat and make sure that is working properly. Next get to your water pump and take it off. Examine your water pump for any leaks or unusall wear on the inside where the fins are located, sometime the fins will shift causing it to stick and prevent it from being able to turn. If the fins stick, that will cause your engine to overheat. The most noticiable way to determine if your water pump is bad is the guasket will break open and antifreeze will literally pour out.
