Why would coolant shoot from the overflow tank on a 1994 ford escort 1.9 changed thermostat could it be the water pump or head gasket?

== == 1) System overfilled (too much coolant in tank)
2) Overheating.
3) Faulty radiator cap (doesn't hold pressure)
4) Hole in tank.
5) Residual air pockets in cooling system due to improper filling procedure.
6) Pressurized combustion gasses in cooling system from damaged engine or gasket.
The ONLY reason this would happen is the head gasket.
Or cracked head or crack on the block.
if the vehicle still runs good then there is a chance that you are filling the ank too much or the cap is bad.

What should you check first if you have no leak and changed the thermostat in 97 escort and have no heat?
I had no heat in my escort either. A new thermostat, cooling system flush, new heater core, another new thermostat, ect. but nothing worked. Still only slightly warm air from the vents. The thermostat housing has a thermostat bypass in it. This bypass is always circulating coolant through your radiator. I plugged mine off with a thermostat gasket and now my car heats and blows hot air with no complications. Good luck.

THATS WHAT THE OVERFLOW/EXPANSION PACK IS FOR. WHEN ANTIFREEZE/COOLANT BEGIN TO BOIL IT EXPANDS AND IT NEEDS A PLACE TO GO. THERE FOR IT GOES IN TO THE OVERFLOW/EXPANSION PACK. THIS PREVENTS DAMAGE TO THE ENGINE/RADIATOR AND OVERHEATING. THERE IS ALSO THE POSIBILITY OF A MALFUNCTIONING SENDING UNIT/GAUGE.
