i think i myself wrote this up at one time, i cant remember... you might want to look into your coolant temp sensor. it tells the fans when to come on and if its bad, the fans will come on whether the engine is hot or not. also make sure you bleed the system well. the thermostat is very easy to replace. just make sure you drain the fluid below the level of the thermostat. then its just a matter of removing the thermostat housing and thermostat, cleaning it all, and replacing it. then just make sure you bleed it when youre done. i can do a detailed write up when i get home if you need more than that.
