More importantly, why did it break? Before you install one, spin each pulley and feel for binding or no movement. Also check for serpentine belt tensioner being cocked or loose. Eye up the pullies to make sure something did not come out of alignment. IF you find something please post it. Oh yeah, there should be a diagram on a sticker somewhere in the engine compartment. I won a 1996 Lincoln Continental and am replacing the belt and water pump, gotta love Ford, guess they didnt think that routing sticker for the belt was necessary. There isn't one anywhere under the hood. Try looking up, I have a 96 Lincoln Continental and it is on the hood itself by the latch.
I was looking at the 1997 Lincoln Continental Owner Guide and the engine cooling system capacity ( including the heater ) is ( 14.25 quarts / 13.5 liters ) So , if you have a 50 / 50 mix of antifreeze and preferably distilled water You would need ( 7.125 quarts / 6.75 liters ) of antifreeze
According to the 1998 Lincoln Continental Owner Guide : The engine cooling system capacity is ( 14.25 U.S. quarts ) * it came from the factory with a 50 / 50 mix of distilled water and GREEN colored antifreeze ( meeting Ford specification ESE-M97B44-A ) *** so , for a 50 / 50 mix it takes just over 7 quarts of antifreeze mixed with 7 quarts of preferably distilled water
A nick, crack or tear in a belt will make a tick soung as well as a water pump that is going bad.
Condensation in the exhaust train is perfectly normal. It should dry out after several minutes. If it smells like antifreeze, suspect a bad head gasket.

To install the water return fitting above the ground pool, you have to switch off the source. After this you can then install the water.
