Can anyone tell me if its worth the hassle of fitting an electric cooling fan will i get a power increase i know i need a switch in the cooling system thanks
-
hi larry not seen ya about much
you still got the sj?
yes leci fan is a good idea removing the viscus fan will give you 10% power increase (or there abouts)
if you go onto ebay their is a kit for fitting a thermostate switch into the suzuki pipe work
hope this helps
