The car would only overheat at traffic lights, but be fine when driving, so I thought it was the fans. Checked and the fans work alright. Then we noticed it was leaking water from a hose leading to the thermostat, so we replaced two hoses leading to the thermostat. Then noticed the thermostat housing was cracked, so we got a new thermostat, gasket and thermostat housing. Now its leaking from the thermostat housing and still overheats, and we cant figure out why.
Replace the thermostat housing and use hi temp gasket silicone.
SOURCE: my car was overheating and antifreeze was leaking
most likey if you changed the thermostate and gasket and antifrezze and water your fan clutch has gone bad an needs to be replaced the clutch works on a friction device the hotter it gets the more the friction plates ingauges causeing the clutch to turn much faster thush cooling the engine. Without this cooling action this will destroy the engine and trans misssionsdm without this cooling so this is true to this date the cooling in fan fan has to work to be able to keep engine cool. now days they call it a puke tank to keep from burning up the engines and is designed so that hot water is pushed out of the tank into the overflow tank so that when it gets hot there us bo waiting for the fluid to be sucked intothe radiator it's done automatically and saves the engines. So small changes have stuck with us and saved the lives of people in the miliatry and in the non milataray systems..

If the upper radiator hose is cool, but the engine is overheated than this could be a sign that the thermostat is stuck. By the way, the thermostat is at the end of the upper hose in the metal housing. There are two bolts holding it to the engine.

Only 2 parts remaining are the thermostat and waterpump. Always start with the thermostat when diagnosing an overheating problem. If the car is overheating constantly under all conditions and coolant is backing up into the reservoir, it's very likely to be the thermostat. If it only overheats at low speed or idling, it's more likely the waterpump.
SOURCE: why is my 1998 hyundai accent overheating?
The head gasket has gone so pressure builds up in the cooling system and forces water out of the overflow
You need someone to take the head off , skim it and fit a new gasket
