Ok I have the car apart doing a water pump and find that the old pump seems to have no problems. The only thing I saw was there was webs/debris in the fail seep holes. The original problem was that there was no flow and the collant was dumping into the overflow after normal temperature pressurizes it causing the engine to overheat.. I thought it was the water pump since I did a really good flush and the systems seemed to drain well.

My question is how can I flush the jacket water system to make sure I have flow before putting the water pump and still having a problem? Can I flush from the water pump outlet hose? Where would that drain. Thanks in advance!!

If you never have coolant flow, even when cold, sounds like air in the cooling system. Make sure you are bleeding it correctly.
