Default water pump issue. D15b7

Okay so i have a 93 Sol S. Its has the original yet newly built D15b7. My issue is the water pump. One day while driving, it started overheating. I checked to find out that one of the radiator hoses was bad. I replaced it. As i was flushing the coolant of air bubbles i realized that i had an excessive leak coming straight from the bottom of the water pump. I took it off, cleaned it, checked the water pump for leaks and it was good. The gasket is fine. Is not the hose under the intake manifold. Anyone have an advice?

Also, when the motor is warm, it idles extremely odd. going from 1000 to 2500 rpms and back down again, constantly. it still overheats as well

I had the same issue (both the leak and the idling) and it was the water pump itself that was bad.
