I've got a 98 Explorer V6 thats temperature has been up and down constantly. Sounds like the thermostat to me. Whats a fair price for parts and labor?

The thermostat should only be about $10 and it's a very easy job. You could do it yourself. It is usually located where the upper radiator hose meets the intake manifold. Just drain your coolant, remove the housing, put the new thermostat in and do the reverse of installation. If you have any more questions just ask.
