Its overheating. And now there is a noise that I think is coming from bottom right pully its running really ruff and funny. And sometimes won't start but other times starts fine but after getting jump started the noise is really loud

Need to see why it is overheating first, are you using coolant? Are there any external coolant leaks? And is this an Australian EF- EL falcon?
