I'm looking to flush my cooling system and need to remove the splash shield on my
Splash shield? Do you mean fan shroud?
Some of the fasterners are expando-thingies. There is a washer-like thing with a part that protrudes through the various holes in the sheetmetal and plastic, then a plunger-thingie that when pushed down will spread tabs on the protruding part. You can pull up on the plunger thingie with a hook or scratch awl or similar tool.
Normally, it is not required to remove the fan shroud to flush the cooling system.
