Well, changing the radiator is little different from draining the
entire system. You just don't need to remove the block drain plug. Just
drain it into a clean container, and then drain the lower into the
container as well when you remove it. Then fill and bleed per FSM.

What is the contact info for where you got that radiator? I need a
new one too. At around 180k miles, mine isn't cooling very well.
