you can pick up a new thermostat at a parts store for about $25.00. I do not know how much a shop will charge to install it, but it should not take more than an hour of labor, two tops if they flush the coolant system while they are performing the repair.
there is a posting that tells how to change this out yourself if you are interested.
man just do it yourself, all you need is a ratchet set, and some Teflon tape (to seal) and of course some spare time, follow the upper radiator hose to the engine, slightly below that you will find your thermo, remove it, wrap new one in teflon tape, screw it in, replug wires (doesnt matter which way) and you are done (i forgot to tell you, unscrew the coolant reservoir cap to relieve pressure, and when you take the old thermo out, some coolant will leak, and above everything else allow the car time to cool, you don't want 150+ degree coolant touching you...)
It should be on the right hand side.
location of thermostat in 1998 Lincoln continental
Should be in housing at end of top radiator hose
first, its not located in a conveinent loccation. It can only be accessed from underneath the car. And, because its on the bottom of the engine block, you will have to drain the coolant.
