Why would hte water pump dying cause the timing belt to break?

This exact circumstance is how I purchased a 94 LSi for a low price (same exact thing happened). If only the car was closer to me, I could try for it.

Overheat
The owner did not give a clear answer as to any possible engine damage due to overheating. I would suspect that it did damage the engine. If it ran long enough with a seized water pump to break the timing belt and to crack the radiator--I smell, as a mininum, engine head damage.

Lee,
Although there is a strong possibility that you could be correct in the assumption of engine damage, there is also a possibility that the engine got away unscathed, as the water pump was completely seized in the 94 Pearl I had and the timing belt was burned up, but with idlers, a belt, and wp, the car ran great after we did some work to it.

Radiator
Quote:
I bought a 92 that had overheated and cracked the radiator--the engine was toast--anyway one side of it. Of course, I only paid $500 for it. Lee
