Electric Fan
baz2236:
Hi I am looking at fitting an electric fan to my 90 what size would be best to fit, also 1 big or 2 smaller ones. Has anyone found a donor car witch has a big fan that I could get from the breakers or is it best to buy a kenlowe one.

I think it was fiatr ducato van that I bought, huge thing it was. On a TDi the rad is roughly square so a big fan will cover most area rather than 2 little ones (better for a V8 rad).
BUT, I spoke to an application engineer at Kenlowe and he advised that I didn't replace the visous with electrics as they can't shift anywhere near as much air, so even though I bought the fiat fans for it I ended up fitting a new visocus and rad because I got a good deal on the pair. Sorted my overheating problems out anyway.
Thats' on my LSE though, it generates a lot of heat when it's towing.

I have one off a Mitsubishi fto on my 90, got it from a scrap yard for next to nothing. It is 2 speed and the wiring, relays and a plastic lunch box to put the relays in cost less than

What size is the FTO, I might go for to scrapies and have a look see what about.

At a guess 12". Never measured it, just saw it and thought it looked about the right size.
