Engine Cooling problem
1994 Mercury Marquis 6 cyl Two Wheel Drive Automatic

I was driving home and the thermostat read how with in five minutes of driving it. I had to drive it 5 miles more to make it a safe turnoff and it barely made it. The motor shut off and made a loud cluk sound. I let it sit for ten minutes and it started. I looked under the car and there was a puddle of water. It steamed really bad for ten minues when it shut off.There already wais a heater core problem that made the window steam. Please help.

Check and test the thermostat and water pump-also check for leaks
