Ok so from my preivous threads. how would i wire the cooling fan so my car will not over heat while in idle for long periods of time. 1991 gs integra.any help would be much appreciated.
But many people do it all the time, and have no issues.Not a good idea IMO.
I agree.Not a good idea IMO.
True, but that doesn't fix the problem properly...it just let's the OP put off the real problem a little longer. Why fix it twice if you don't have to. Fix it right the first time. Just my opinion....But many people do it all the time, and have no issues.
You wire it to something that comes on when the key is in that position, or the spot in the fusebox that has those properties.Well, how would you wire up the fan to be on when the car is on/acc? One person explained it but wasnt too sure. I would like to do this without the switch.
your car will over heat if its at idle and not moving if your fan doesnt turn on, i had a brand new radiator, thermostat and coolant, the fan didnt turn on while it was parked and it would start to over heat, not the fan stays on and i havent had any problem since, it would only happen if your fan is not working properlyLike I stated, fix your overheating first.
Your car should NOT overheat at all.
I would reccomend hooking a fan up via switch that's connected to constant power so when you're at the track inbetween runs you can have the fan run and lock up car and have keys in your pocket if needed.
you could just do it the way i did but leave the toggle switch out. just do.....ground to chassis.......positive to 10a fuse......to an unused acc plug on under dash fuse box. only reason i left the switch in was so i could turn it off on the really cold days in the winter.Well, how would you wire up the fan to be on when the car is on/acc?

like i stated, i had a brand new thermostat, brand new radiator, and already did a coolant flush when i did my swap, and the car would still overheat because the fan wouldnt turn on.I just unplugged my fan, and let my car idle for 35 minutes. The gauge didnt go more than half way.
I also ran NO fan in my z, never had issues with overheating.
Just do a coolant flush, and you'll be suprised with results
