Hi all,
After finally getting around to making the viscous fan work properly in my 504, I'm finding it still gets a little too warm for my liking in certain situations (heavy stop/start traffic etc).
For piece of mind, I'm thinking of installing an on/off switch in addition to the fitting in the bottom of the radiator. The idea being that I'll leave it in "auto-fan" mode 90% of the time, and then force it to engage using a switch under the dash when needed.
So, I'm assuming it's just a matter of running wires from either side of the temp sender to a switch inside the cabin?
Additionally, does anyone have any other solutions/thoughts on this?
P.S - The cooling system itself is healthy. With the thermo-switch shorted, the temp gauge doesn't go above half-way in any circumstance.
