Aristotle,
don't I have to drain the radiator, then bleed the coolant?  The
process sounded like a hassle.  I'll probably do it one day, but I
don't want to spend a full day on something like this right now.

How long did it take you to replace the radiator fan switch that is
located on the radiator on the driver's side?  Also, I'm a little
worried about not being able to bleed it properly.
