At least not the root cause of the overheating. If it's pressurising enough to blow seals it could well be a blown headgasket. No point diving in to change the pump if you then have to do the headgasket too... as an example.
As for changing it, cambelt off, unbolt pump, new pump with new gasket, cambelt back on. There's a bazillion cambelt change threads kicking about, only difference is you'll want to change the pump while the belts off.
Thanks! How do i know if it's a blown headgasket? I have very little knowledge. There is no oil in the water and no water in the oil btw..
