Message	Z started to overheat, and steam from under hood. Looks like behind throttle cover area, but cant really tell. I lost both heat and a/c. Car overheats very quickly, few blocks until I have to shut her down. This happened all of a sudden, pulling out to road. I'm not getting any smoke coming out of tailpipe, and engine sounds okay and it's not misfiring. My first guess would be water pump but how can I tell if it's a) head gasket b) water pump c) thermostat d) coolant hose e) others.
