Seems like something is blocked and the water is not circulating or only
intermittently, can the water pump fail without showing external signs of

Greg--
Start by suspecting the easiest repair--the thermostat.  Pull it and check 
its action as you heat it in a pot of water on the stovetop.  Use a candy 
thermometer if necessary to see when it opens, etc.  You might destroy the 
gasket in 
the process.
