Mark VIII fan help
It appears that i've drawn a racing crowd with my question on the fan, although my Bird is not a track car, it does have some mods that make it run hotter than your normal street car, as if the 3.8 does'nt run hot enough without any mods.
I heard from the 5.0 guys, that this fan is the only way to go to keep cool. So i figured if the 5.0 guys are keeping cool with it , it should do wonders for the 3.8,right?
I did a google search and found a site link that explained how to wire it to a 5.0 mustang, but it only gives instructions on how to wire it for constant cooling(always on). I would like to hook up a thermostatic switch that would turn the fan on at 190*.
I also hear that this fan draws a lot of amps. I dont think i'll have a problem with that because i have a 130 amp alt. I guess my question should have been...
1) What is the center pin on the fan harnes receptical for?
2) How would i hook up an air conditioning relay to it?
3) what size in-line fuse should i use so i dont fry the fan?
Thank you for the information and suggestions.
