Check out this nifty image I got tonite.  This was a trip to 7-11 and back (maybe 5 miles). The hood wasn't even warm yet. This another one of the gremlins I have running around inside my car. Clicky ! I just thought you guys might like to this.

Mine gets really hot when sitting at traffic lights... I've put it down to having the underdrive pulley not allowing the wat pump to make enough water flow....

Looks to me like your water pump is dead or dying. Replace it now. Or else u may have more troubles than a broken water pump on your hand.

Its a Zetec... Not a duratec, the Zetec waterpumps aren't subject to catastrophic failure like the duratec ones....
