I have replaced the thermostat and
checked the coolant but it continues
to run hot. What else can I do? I can't
afford a mechanic.

Should be located next to the thermostat housing. Is your coolant level light on as well?

The water pump could be the problem if you never put new one on,to confirm this before you replace it,crank car remove radiator cap,wait for thermostat to open,you should see the water circulate in the radiator,if not it will be the water pump.

Are the radiator fans coming on ? Also would not hurt to clean radiator fins maybe partially clogged with dirt and bugs restricting air flow across radiator.

Its the coolant temp sensor. Unplug it and rplug it in. This will fix the car saying ac hot and temp dropping to 0. If your car does it sometimes this will fix it unplug and clean coolant temp sensor.
