Follow the top rad. hose. The thermostat is in that housing. Have a new stat. and gasket, you might have to drain some coolant, then un-bolt the housing and replace. When you start up after, check for leaks, and let the engine warm up before you add the missing coolant, and have the heater on full. As the engine warms up, the stat. will open then add coolant, slowly, till its full. This way, there will be no air in the system. Also, '97, I believe still has the old style intake manifold. That is its plastic on the cross over from the stat. These intakes crack on the plastic seam and there goes the coolant and overheating. Ford has produced a modified intake with a cast cross over. Problem is that you are past the re-call. Mine cost me $ 500 buck for the intake, takes about 8 hours to do the job. Need more info, let me know. Goog luck.
