advice on over heating
the water pump leaked and the car over heated for two minutes, i immediately turn the engine off. It happened 4 times (always turning the engine off before it started to overheat) before i could bring it for repair.
The engine is perfect, my question is: are the gaskets going to break soon? thanks

Hard to say. Best to replace the pump, etc and go from there.

Drive it like it is. If something happens deal with it then.

How is it running now? When they changed your water pump, did they flush your radiator and change your thermostat as well?
How is your AC working? I know Miami is getting hotter.

I would see if the fans are kicking on while running that could be a cause. ALso the thermostat, but that should of been changed with the waterpump i would imagine. Is the radiator or condensor clogged or plugged? What color is the fluid? Just some suggestions to give ya
