the only thing connecting the radiator to the car is the plug, but i cant get it unplugged. help?
 
If you are referring to the thermo sensor on the radiator which activates the radiator electric cooling fan motor, there is just a finger on it which must be lifted to unlock the plug from the socket and then just pull the plug straight out. It can be a tightly fit socket and might be hard to unplug if there was no dielectric grease used to lubricate the socket but it will unplug by just lifting the finger lock and pulling the plug straight out.
 
sorry a plug only plug i can think of is the drain plug on the bottom of radiator.. should have two hoses and maybe two transmission lines and the top cover that might have four or six bolts you cant miss them you see them when you open hood and they just lift out about ten minutes work some im guesing its some kind of heat temp plug so if you look a round the edge of it you shoul dsee a little slide or buttom to push in on if not just pry it
 
you know that you can remove the plug in its entirerty i think its a 11/16 size wrench ti do so. its plugged because of the rust sedemint at the bottom.you cane also take a pine needle or thin straw to unplug it
