Re: 95 escort over heated now won't run!!!

Sounds like you blew a head gasket. Check engine oil dipstick. Does the fluid look like something resembling a chocolate milkshake? Look for abnormal amounts of water coming out of any part of your exhaust system and smell exhaust pipe tip, does it smell sweet(coolant)? You might also want to remove radiator cap and try and start car if it pushes fluid out violently or continous bubbling this or any of the above would indicate head/head gasket problems.
