remove the drain plug. ive never done this before. i believe it's the
white thing at the bottom lefthand side of the radiator, it's kind of hard
to get to and im not quite sure how to remove it. please help? and also, is
there anything else i need to do before removing the drain plug.

Some people cut a slot into something. I often end up using different
types of pliers on them.

I think that year (2001) uses a plug that has a 1/4" square hole in it. If
this is the case, use a 1/4" ratchet drive to turn it about 1/4 of a turn
and then pull it out about 1/2".

Good Luck.
