Well after sing the praises of tan electric fan for the last 2 years I went back to the old clutch driven one. Why, you may ask? Well I'll tell you why. It always seemed to run hotter with that fan.

Notice any difference in power between the two? Perhaps a slight loss? I've wondered about power consumption with the stock pump and whether or not it could be felt by the seat-of-the-pants. TIA WFO

Yes. The impellers are the same. I think the problem is 2 fold. THe thermostat tha controls the fan fits in the rad fins. It is set for 180. THe other problem was I chose a 12" fan and it has 6 blade

Unfortunately there is a obvious power loss. It just doesn't have the snap it did with the clutch fan as it did without. And when you hammer it all you hear is this horrendous "wwhhhoosss" I have to

This was a major topic some time ago on the Triumph list and the final concensus was that the fan worked better on either the fron or back of the radiator, ..old fa*t memory thinks it needed to be on

If you saw the 12" fan you might get the picture. Between the motor, shroud and fan blades themselves the rad core is pretty much covered up. There is very little open area for air to flow through t

Coming in a bit late on this discussion, but... When I went to an electric fan, I experimented a bit with the position of the temperature sensor in the radiator, to get the fan to switch on and off

Try checking the voltage coming off the voltage stabalizer. If the stabalizer is bad your electric temp gauge will read higher than normal. I thought only '79 Midgets had electric temp gauges, so if

Mine is in the upper left corner. Remember, though that my car is a 1500, so the hot water from the engine flows in at the bottom of the left (as you sit in the car) side, and exits the radiator on

They're all in that position on 1500s. If it has a spiral-wrapped spring-like thing over it, it's actually a tube, and your gauge is mechanical. Otherwise it's electric. I >think< they made the chan

Makes sense. I think my car was built in Feb. 77 and it does have a spiral-wrapped spring-thing over it. Larry, do you know when your car was built. Bill Gilroy 77 Midget with the cool gauge :-)
