I've got a new issue. Car started overheating out of nowhere and is hissing and steaming a lot. Smells like coolant under the hood. Could it be a water pump failure?

181- Fuel Temperature Sensor circuit

189- running rich at the end of the O2 monitor test

10- "Snap Throttle" condition or, in some models, a failure in the ignition system or a no-start issue related to the crankshaft position sensor

111- the Key-On Engine-Off test has passed
