I recently had the thermostat replaced in my 1984 GL. It definitely solved
an _under_ heating problem. I understand that the thermostat should fail in
the direction of opening all the time, but it would be worth checking if
yours has failed the other way round. It was not a very costly job.

If hot water is getting to the heaters then I wouldn't have thought it was
the pump.
