What sysrems will you see on your 97 ford ranger when the thermostat has gone bad?

If your engine thermostat sticks open it will run cooler on your temperature
gauge and you won't see the temperature gauge go up to the point where
your engine thermostat opens and then the temperature gauge will show a
drop in temperature , your check engine light will probably come on , your gas
mileage will be less , the heat from your heater probably won't get as hot
If the engine thermostat were to stick in the closed position your engine will
overheat ( but there are several other causes for an engine to overheat )

Most of the time it is because the thermostat has gone bad and is not opening at the proper temperature. Cure: replace thermostat. If the thermostat has been replaced, flush the radiator. Buildup of residue in the bottom of the radiato0r will cause overheating, but it is maintained over heating, not temporary.
