whiskywaterwine

One of my fans stopped working. High temp was running....but not red area. Just below it.
Exited highway, coming off ramp, car shut down. Most of coolant was gone. Car would not and still won't start. No blown head gasket.
Someone told me that I probably need to replace water pump?
It's turning and cranking....won't start.

Anyone with a procedural checklist?
Not good at diagnosis, but great at turning the wrench

Help

Thanks
