Either your cooling fan isnt cooling enough because its old or maybe there's debris(leaves, dirt) in the radiaor support.Also you may have an air pocket in the coolng system.

This can be caused by a failed head gasket at a point that allows high temperature gases to escape into the coolant channels. Check your coolant for odors you would associate with exhaust fumes and check the color of the coolant mix to see if any contaminants are in it.
You might also do an inspection of the oil level dipstick to see if there is anything resembling Jergen's lotion on it; this can happen with a severely leaking head-gasket too. This kind of failure by itself ~just~ destroys the engine over time but doesn't affect the coolant temperature.

Over heating

Yes it will run without thermostat.
Did you bleed the radiator off air pockets?
Park on a hill engine facing up take of the radiator cap (WHEN COLD) and run engine, as it heats up bubbles will come out of the cap area you will need to keep filling till the bubbles stop.
The thermostat is only to help it get to an operating temperature faster to stop engine damage by running cold, they can stick and get blocked.
If it stops over heating by taking out the thermostat I would recommend to replace the thermostat as this would be the problem.
They do have a gasket that you need to consider prior to removing it.
Let me know if this helps ;-)

I have a 1996 Mercury Cougar 3.8L where is the temperature sensor located?

On the top of your intake right next to your goose neck that comes from ya raditor. Just fallow the raditor hose from the raditor to your engine and you will find ya goose neck. Look to the right of it and you will see where it screws into your intake. It should have one conection to it.

Car over heating.... changed water pump,raditor, milled heads,replace computer, flush block, thermo still over heats

YOU HAVE A THERMOSTAT THAT IS OPENING AT 195 (TO HIGH) TRY REPLACING IT WITH A 160 DEGREE IT WILL ALLOW THE SYSTEM TO FLOW MORE FREELY, ALTHOUGH THE HEAT WILL TAKE A BIT LONGER TO HEAT UP, THE ENGINE WILL STOP OVER HEATING. YOU SHOULD HAVE DONE THAT FROM BEGINNING.

98 mazda millenia no heat. blow cold air. there is a canister at bottom of raditor, when replacig raditor the line to that busted and since replacing it i have had no heat?? did coolant flush no help..

You might want make sure all hoses are conected properly and that there is no hissing sounds in the engine. This can usaully be a faulty M.A.P sensor or the flow of air pressure is some how restricted to the sensor.
