taurus fan

OK, so I got a taurus fan, and what a deal too. A guy just finished removing it from a 93 3.8L so he could get the radiator out. All I had to do was unplug it, and it was on sale, only $5. So, what do I do now??

What I would reccomend now is that you get some zip ties, cable ties, whatever you wanna call them, and tie the fan up to the radiator. Then you have several options for wiring it up. Many people use an adjustable thermostat for the fan so it kicks in whenever it senses a certain temperature has been reached. I myself put it on a toggle On/Off switch and just remember to turn it on everytime I start the car. If you have a bad memory I would recommend using a thermostat. Search for Taurus fan, or Fiero Fan, also and you should find plenty of information on everyone's setups. Good luck, let us know how it goes! Here is a pic of my finished setup....
