These vehicles are historic for head gasket problems. Ford had issued a recall because there where so many problems. The new head gasket is a different material than the original. Cost to replace varies by shop and geographic location, plan on around 1100 bucks.

What would cause oil to be in the radiator in a 1992 mercury sable

What colour oil is it, if it's white or red then it sounds like the tranny oil is leaking, but only if it is a automatic, if a manual then it has migration of oil into a water jacket and will need to be fixed, by replacing the head gasket

How often do I have to change the oil on my 1998 Lincoln Continental?

Should change every 3,000 miles if your using standard oil. Can go 5,000 miles with synthetic oil. Consider using an oil designed for high mileage cars .

Over heating engine, can drive for 1 mile without damage?

Any engine, when cold, takes at least 3 miles before reaching operating temperature.. After reaching operating temp it still takes a mile or 8(depending on your vehicle) before "over" temperatures are reached. Therefore if needed, a vehicle can be driven several miles without any coolant/water at all before overheating and causing damage, if started from from cold.

4.6 liter, 97 Continental, 177,000 miles Engine miss

My 1998 Continental started missing. Problem was very slightly leaking valve cover gasket that allowed a little oil to drip on plug/plug wires. The oil would 'burn off' and not be evident on the driveway. It left carbon tracks that would short out and keep a plug from sparking.the cylindars.
