Why does water bubble up through your expansion tank coming off your radiator and the engine gets very hot?

That is happening because you have a leak somewhere in the system and it is not allowing it to build pressure. when there is no leaks it would not boil over because the pressure in the system would in a way compress the water from becoming a vapor. and that pressure can be getting lost threw a crack in the radiator, a hole in a hose, a loose hose, a bad radiator cap pressure seal, or a crack in the block.

Why is there not any pressure in the cooling system?

== == No pressure means a leak (Internal or External) or a bad radiator cap. Try the radiator cap first as it is the easiest to replace. If pressure still fails to build, inspect your system carefully. Look for ANY evidence of moisture on engine components and try to find the leaking gasket. Also be aware that some gaskets can give way inside your engine releasing pressure/ antifreeze into your Combustion chambers and/ or oil reservoirs causing irreparable damage.
