Because from the minute I turn my truck on the fan spins and never stop. I'm trying to Change my fluid but I can't get the stuff in the overflow tank (where the flush is pored) to go into the radiator. Seems like its not warming up

Unless these are different than other vehicles, won't the fan always spin at least some? I just got my F150 but I know with my Dakota even when the cluth was disengaged there was still some resistance, so the fan spun, but you could tell it wasn't full speed. Once the engine warms up and the clutch engaged you could really tell the fan was spinning with the engine.

The fan is designed to pull air thru the radiator so at idle it will always spin, at higher speeds with air being forced thru the radiator the fan slows down/stops if the fan clutch is working correctly. Like said above the thermostat controls the engine temp. With summer knocking on the door it would be good maintenance to replace the thermostat and any hoses that look questionable after you do your flush.
