Can you test the original electric fan straight to the battery? Is the black wire ground and the blue one hot? I got some good pics of the mounting, for this setup, from Kevin Rhodes. I see Kevin has

Anybody know if the electric cooling fan in the VB catalog ($100) is the same as the Flex-a-lite fan offered by Summit (FLX-390 @ $70)? They look the same, but the price is obviously a little better

I have just bought a 1979 spitfire 1500 and I am in the process of reconditioning it. One of the things I am unsure about is the cooling fan. It does not come on and the radiator steams. I have not o

I would suggest rigging up a test in your kitcken. Suspend the switch over a saucepan of water so that the detector part is immersed. Hook up a multimeter to the switch to read resistance. Slowly he

Quoting James Davis <booby1@adelphia.net>: Does the fan work when constant power is connected to it? You may want to run a jumper from the battery to the fan to see if it works. Tim Wilcox Informatio

Mike, I am not an electrical genius, but from experience. The reason the DPO did that is the thermostatic switch on top of the radiator went south. Since there is not supposed replacement he jerry ri

Places like Pep Boys, Advance Auto and such all carry the various thermal switches for cooling fans. You simply need to find one that matches up on threads and screw it in. They cost around $10-20.
