  Just to clarify:
  The later 4kq "after run" circuit is not controlled in
  any way by the radiator fan thermoswitch.  There is a
  separate temperature sensitive switch that sits on a
  bracket at the back of the cylinder head, and is
  attached by the valve cover nuts.  This switch is
  routed through a relay which turns on the fan when the
  switch is closed.  I believe the relay has a capacitor
  inside that charges when the ignition switch is on -
  this way the fan will only run for a limited time and
  won't drain the battery.
