XJ Overheated, will start then die shortly after driving
So prior to it overheating my cherokee had a coolant leak. Seemed to be coming from the water pump. It defenitly wasnt coming from any of the Radiator hoses or radiator. I was working on steering issues at the time & was gonna address this next. So I was just keeping it full with water & what was left of coolant. It overheated & died so I parked it, came back the next day to drive it to my house (it was right around the corner). It started right up & drove for a while then when i stopped at a stop sighn it just died & did not want to start back up at all (It did not overheat this time).
Model: Jeep Cherokee Laredo 4.0
My questions are? Is my motor done for? or if i replace the water pump it should be fine? any help would be greatly appreciated.
BTW Im new to the site whats up guys. Forgive me for my spelling as well hah im typing really fast.
Thanks GUYS
