Good move [thumbzup] I think Devilman (diablo) got it as close to perfect as it can get

One thing I've noticed about the electric fan is when I've installed the water pump fan for tests the force of the water pump fan spins the electric fan and causes the tattle-tale light to light up. The only thing I can figure is that the free spinning fan is working like and generator and is...

The fan I have (a Spal) is 24 volt and if memory serves me right it pulls 11 amps therefore there has never been an alternater/battery problem. I've changed to all mechanical gauges including a mechanical oil temp gauge. With the removal of the water pump fan I was a little concerned that the...

Since I made the above post I've had a chance to get more familiar with the electric fan. While I still wouldn't want to undertake pulling a heavy load very far on a hot day, the 2360 CFM Spal fan does a good job in Minnesota weather. From a practical standpoint I have to ask, how often is a...

Seems I remember someone saying in a thread a couple of years ago that running with a winter front helped solve the problem you mention.

Hello --- Thanks for all the input. Redwolf3 Sez: We are saying the same thing --- just in a different way. On a cool day I can deactivate the fan and the thermostat will keep everything modulated within the 180 degree range. This isn't optimal (200 degrees is optimal) but its comforting to...

New Hot Weather Tests on Electric Cooling Fan I was finally able to do some hot weather testing on the electric cooling fan and the new, less restrictive fan mount. After much experimentation I have to say the project was a success AND a failure. It is a success in that it offers a solution...

Last year I installed an electric cooling fan on my deuce. The main reason for doing so was because the standard water pump mounted fan wouldn't allow the engine to heat up above 120 degrees in our cold Northern Minnesota winters. The background on this project was covered in a "Slobbering...
