Thermostat valve doesn't funtion properly.
Replace it
I need to know exactly what I need to get fixed ??? It's not that easy Rachelle , could be cause by a number of thing's , without test the vehicle electrical circuit's ,checking for diagnostic trouble code's ,we'd only be guessing ! You don't want to replace a bunch of part's you don't need , do you ? Your best bet ,take your vehicle to a qualified repair shop. Just from your post i can tell your looking for a magical fix , have no clue of automotive electrical systems an testing of complex electronic system's .

if the car is stilling running hot check the antifreeze overflow bottle for a crack and to answer your question start the car and get it to normal temp while it is still running you open the overflow bottle fill it to the cold mark and keep adding coolant until all the bubbles are out of the system and put the cap back on right away

your heater core may be getting blocked up, or the thermostat may be stuck open at times. you have a few options here, option 1 and 2 cost about the same, option 1: have the thermostat replaced just so you know its working properly, a 97 will most likely not have a telltale way of knowing if the thermostat is bad or going bad. option 2. have the cooling system flushed at a shop. this will try to clear out and debris in the cooling system that may be blocking passages or the heater core. option 3 is the most expensive. have the heater core replaced, the heater core is what provides heat to the hvac system in the dash. a few other things to check would be vacuum lines/actuator/temperature door on your hvac system.

sounds like the thermostat is stuck. check this first. easier just to remove it and reinstall without one just to see if you get heat. If still not working then there needs to be a good flushing to be done. just make sure when you do a flush to leave heater controls to hot. if still not working then sounds to be like a bad heater core. you might need a professional flush which uses high pressure to blow out any clogs in heater core. hope this helps.

Depends on what thermostat you put in. Stock is a 190*. Which will usally run about 200-210. That's where most all small blocks are happy.

Sounds like there is a weak connection at the temperature sending unit. Try pulling the connector off and on several times, and see if that fixes the problem. This may be a one wire sensor somewhere around the thermostat area.
