Contour Enthusiasts Group Archives Forums General General well, it finally happened

First, the story:
So about 3 days ago i realized my coolant level was a little low...not extremely low but low enough to put some more in. So tonight I put some in. Well, I run down to QuickTrip to get some gas and nothin is out of the ordinary. I get back in the car and start it up. As I'm pulling out I realize the check engine light is on. It hasn't come on since I had my 02 replaced so I checked my guages and they looked ok so I figured I just didn't put the gas cap on enough. About another 30 seconds I glance down again and the temp guage is pinned. I turn down my music and my engine fan is just screamin. I get home kinda quick cause I didn't catch any lights and I pull in the garage and pop the hood. This is the loudest I've heard my engine. ALL OF THE LIQUID WAS BOILING. I let it sit and figure its the water pump. Tomorrow I'll get it towed to a dealership and have them check it out ASAP. This really makes me mad. I mean I shoulda expected it but still...This one might be up for sale soon. Who knows. BTW...it has about 57k on it.
