What kind of temps are you driving in? I have the same trouble with my 93 Grand Marquis here in MI, so I threw a piece of cardboard in front of the radiator. If you take the plastic shroud off the top of the radiator a piece of cardboard with drop in between the radiator and the ac condenser perfectly. I will be sure to get that cardboard back out of there as soon as the temps start get back in the 40's though.

Even with the cardboard the car seem to take forever to heat up. After about 10 miles of run time the temp gauge will start climb into the middle third of the gauge, and as high as it will go is just a little to the right side of straight up and down.


I put a new thermostat in it about a while back, and it didn't really make any difference when I did it so I can't see trying it again. The temp runs good in the summertime. I hate doing the thermostat on that car too because all the coolant that spills on the intake ends up down in the spark plug holes and stays there pretty much forever, or until the plugs come and let it run down into the cylinders.
