Firstly my car started off with a noisey water pump, a couple of weeks later it started to blow gray smoke, and now its mising on excelleration, is it possible that the water pump is causing these issues, instead of the water cooling the engine, is it possible that the oil is heating up inside the uncooled engine causing the smoke

Hi there,

Your main problem will be a tune issue, the miss under acceleration will be a faulty plug or a lead, you will need to get the water pump replaced before you start to have coolant loss problem and over heating issues.
