Default 89 Mustang LX 2.3 Cooling

It appears that I have a faulty temperature gauge in my instrument cluster. So my car overheated to a point to where it was knocking so badly that I thought I threw a rod and finally died in my driveway. So I ran to Schucks and bought a pressure tester and pulled 90 pounds from the first cylinder, 170, 170, and 170 from the next three. So I bought some new plugs and wires for the hell of it and threw them on. I filled it with water and started it up to realize that I need some motor mounts, but aside from that, it was missing. I started to pull wires when the first one zapped me so I quit doing that. Then I noticed that the electric fan wasn’t working and checked the dash to find it only at about 150, but it was definitely overheating(saw the steam). So I turned it off and ran to the computer for assistance (don’t have the repair book) with no luck on Google. So here I am with my sad story wondering where my relay is and why it is missing still.

Any help would much be appreciated.
