Fan is on as soon as engine starts

RE: Fan is on as soon as engine starts
"Oh, another observation, the brass nut at the top of the radiator had no thread on bolt or hole, is this normal? It simply pushed in or pulled out".
No on else has commented on thisso I've probably misunderstood what you are saying.
But if you are referring to the cooling system bleed screw on the top of the radiator then something is wrong.
As per its name thisscrews into the opening in the radiator and has a sealing washer. If you have anon-threaded "plug"in this position thenI'd be very worried.It's probably leaking under pressure (as the engine warms up) and may alsobe preventing the engine from reaching operating temperature.
