Water pump failure is typical cause of overheating problems in V-6 taurus. The impellor on the pump corrodes to the point that the blades disentegrate and no longer push coolant. The pump will appear normal on the outside. Have seen this many times. This is also the usual cause for blown head gaskets. :shock:
