I own a 1990 Mazda 626. It continues to run hot, no matter how much coolant or water I put in the radiator or tank. I think my bypass hose is cracked and my radiator cap is broken. When I stop, shut it off, and lift the hood, water and steam are spewing out of that hose. Any assistance or suggestions would be appreciated.

Have you checked your
thermostat, most of the time it is that make sure that you check that your water pump is also working if after you have checked all this you must check and flush your whole radiator system.

My 2000 mazda 626 has lost all coolant but has not overheated

Loosing coolant may trick the water sensor(will not show temperature as is not merged in water.The apearence of loosing all coolant also may be tricky,the coolant will stay at a lower level,mistaken as no coolant,as long as more than 50% of the cilynder is merged in water it will allow to cool down as u dont force it.

What sort of fuel should i put in a 1990 mazda 626

you can run 89 octane without any issues, no need to run the premium unless it states it in the manual or on the dash.

I have a 98 mazda 626 an the a/c blows out hot air. How can i fix this?

Nope.
The coolant only cools the engine and produces heat for the cabin in the winter.
You need to find out if the compressor is working when the engine is running and the ac switch is on.
I could be low on freon or have an electrical problem.

I have a 1996 Mazda 626 2.0 Automatic. It runs

of course the top is hot water goes into the rad from the top and out of the bottom into the engine, the fact that the belt broke makes me wonder about the integrity of the water pump, the impeller might be slipping, could still be the rad , does the heat go from the top to the bottom???

Car overheating

If the water is pumping out of the overflow pipe either something is pressurizing the coolant system(cracked head or blown head gasket) or you have a very bad pressure cap. I have seen a bad pressure cap cause all kinds of problems.
