hi guys,
like the forum up to now, really good site, just hope someone can help me.

i have a 2000 w reg fiat bravo 1242cc 16v 80sx ive been using it as a daily driver, but untill this past week, the heaters have stopped working, but i just left it, untill i had time to have a look at them, but it was to late, i was driving down the motorway doing 70mph my service light came on, so i came of at the nearest slip road, and than i came to around about my temperture shot right up, i was half way round the roundbout and it just cut out, i let it cooled down, put some more water init, and it fired up 1st time, it would run for about 3mins than temp would shoot up again, then cut out, i towed it home, and it wont start atall, could it be the water pump, or is the engine knackard needing a new head gasket

many thanks
