It overheats and blows water out the radiater overflow/ filling tank. I put in a new thermastat flushed and filled radiater and the water pump is a year old and not leaking and appears to be working but not 100% sure. When i drive it a long way 20-30 miles it starts overheating and blow water out the overflow
Assuming the engine is ok, no leaking head gasket or exhaust problem, you need to know if the radiator fan comes on when the engine reaches 225 degrees. It should also come on when you turn the ac on if the ac works.
Its also possible you have air in the cooling system.

It maybe a cracked head or head gasket or cracked block. Ask your friends for help (those with mechanical abilities) or take it to a shop. Make sure you don;t get water/ antifreeze in the oil or your whole engine will be toast.
Pull the spark plugs. the one with the cleaner/ whiter insulator is probably the bad cylinder.
Hope this helps.
SOURCE: overheating
there is a weep hole on the neck of the water pump
it will leak if there is adequate pressure in the
system .
But a mechanic will know for sure

1st you need to make sure no air in your system open you radaiator cap and your heater to max and see if air bubles or circulation is going on fill up accordingly otherwise you have blockage in your system or water pump if no circulation ////make sure no bubles all bubles should be gone////look for coolant circulation in your radiator make sure your thermostat is not defective or placed in the right position.
SOURCE: i have changed the radiator
replace your radiator cap.Cap is not holding pressure letting antifreeze escape past it to overflow then on the ground.When enough antifreeze has escaped engine starts to overheat.
SOURCE: My car overheated and I pulled over and waited
A blown head gasket is likely. Leave the radiator cap off, start car, if bubbles come up in radiator you have a blown head gasket or cracked head. Let me know if this isn't it or if you have more questions.
