temp climbs slowly

91rcktstang · 06-05-2005, 10:44 PM

The fan and fan shroud were the problem. The Fan shroud was not secured on the bottom of the radiator, fan clutch was toasted. A friend suggested I try a flex fan, so I did, the car doesnt get above 195 degrees, Problem solved. I also have heard flex fans seem to drain horsepower, I dont feel a difference. Anyone have any experience with flex fans.

so u installed a flex fan and took out the old stock fan & clutch altogether? well, flex fans are supposed to flatten out (flex) at high rpm to create less drag. i dont think you will see and surely will not feel any HP difference switching over from the stock setup to a flex fan

glad to see u solved your problem
