Brake failure/over heating.
Hello everyone,
Thank you for helping me with my first few post. I finally replaced all my engine electrical and fuel system. Then the timing gear. Which did it for me.
I had the trucks ignition timing done and it has been running great.
Last weekend I blow the bottom radiator hose and replaced both top and bottom as well as the thermostat. Last night I was coming home and as I was turning onto my street, the brakes went out. I managed to get the truck into my driveway. Today I worked on my brake system.
as I was about to bleed my brakes. The engine seemed as though it was running on half cycleders. The pressure in both top and bottom hoses where nonexistent, then my brakes went out and I was unable to stop. Thank god for my riding lawn mower which pulled me to a stop.
Is my water pump bad or is it something worse?

You're kind of running the explanations of your brakes and your overheating problems together. If I understand correct you had no pressure in your top or bottom radiator hose? You would have to figure out where the major leak is in your cooling system first thing.
