 If the waterpump is not leaking from below, what is the best way to test it? 
Can you assume it works if both radiator? hoses get hot thus assuming the water 
is circulating? Or could the water get hot without a functioning water pump?
TIA

2 thoughts, first is 'doh'-
it does have a fan belt on it, right?

Second is, if a compression test turns out ok,
check the water pump.  They don't usually fail,
but it's possible.  Or, a large piece of crud
has gotten loose and blocked a passage....
