VB cooling fan anybody got it?
 

im looking in the VB mag and saw the electic cooling fan and i was wondering about how it ran??? i htought u hooked an aux.. switch and it ran all the time as long as your car was on but they make it sound like you HAVE to buy the adjustable thermostat which is what controls it....???

This questions has been asked by me like 10 times, and by others about 100 times...

now that u think im going to tell you to search...

U wont find anything, even though its been asked so many times noone ever gets a response people just kinda look over it its wierd. I to want to know so hopefully we will get answers this time

its sold by flex-a-lite went ot the site and matched up the pictures its but basclly any 14" fan but let me ask my friend he has one on his 1980 camaro but i remeber if u even turned his key to the acc. the fan would come on jsut like your radio

i dont get the whole push pull thing...like that determens where it is mouted front or back of rad but cant you mout a pusher fan on hte inside of the rad. flipped over though so its pushing air onto the engine

A simple thermocouple is pressed through and between the radiator fins (very carefully, I may add), then as the water temp reaches the set thermostat temp, the fan automatically comes on per the thermocouple switch. I believe the thermostat adjustment knob will adjust from a low of 180 degrees up to 240 desgrees. I use a BlackMagic Fan and it simply doesn't need to run non-stop. It's quite nice.

(edit: Mine is a pull fan mounted behind the radiator. It pulls wind bigtime!)

can you give me a link to where you bought it and how was the install done

Buy it at Summit.

You could also get a taurus or fiero fan for alot cheaper. Theres been plenty of people who've used them and are totally happy with 'em. Do a search

Heres a good link http://www.aaroncake.net/rx-7/efaninstall.htm

You dont have to get the thermostat, if you just splice the power wire from ur fan into any wire that only powers when the car is on ACC or running, such as your stereo control wire (for example...there are others too) the fan will only turn on when thats on...problem is that it runs non stop. But I have a 15 inch flex-a-lite and i run mine like that just fine, no thermostat. No drain on the battery either (cause i have a Yellow Top)

so how did u wire it up again??you did it like your radio where it has constent power u did positive negative and then a acc line
