Actually, there's an even better option if you want to keep it simple:

Just disconnect one hose from each TB, the front-most one (leave the other one connected). These are the ones whose other ends connect to points 'C' and 'E' labeled red in the diagrams at the top. Plug the two disconnected rubber hose ends (like, find an appropriately-sized bolt, stick it in the line, and then use a small hose clamp to secure it, such as the ones already there on the line), and then blow the leftover coolant out of the now-disconnected part of the system (blow air into the open metal connection on one TB, and the water will shoot out the open metal connector on the other).
