Hello,

Ok, how long did you let it run? You say it is not overheating, if it is not overheating then the water pump is working fine, but that will also depend on how long vehicle was run.

Something to check, with engine off and cool remove the bleeder and if water comes out the hole then the bleeder is plugged.
