taurus wiring diagram

http://www.fordmuscle.com/archives/2...an/index.shtml

DANG! 130 amps for a millisecond while it kicks on! 40amps while it is running! I'm going to have to get a bigger alternator than my 87 2nd gen!

This was just for wiring the hi speed. How about wiring both to work? Any help?

See, I did search some.

It's rated for 40. I've never blown a 20amp fuse running mine, and that's at high speed. You can't run both, however. Wire it up to for high speed and let it rip.

What about pulling the fan relay off the Taurus when you pull the fan out?

It still takes energy to make the power for the electric fan, is it really worth it compared to a properly functioning stock fan? It's one of the very last thing's I would do unless I was installing/plumbing an intercooler.

Perhaps his clutch fan locked, new clutches are extremely expensive.

So is it's low speed setting too low then?
