They go straight in, you will just need to wire them up correclty.
Mine is using a variable switch and I think a copper temp sensor(?) into the top radiator house. You can adjust when it comes on and at what temperate, I just set it properly this weekend. |

Well if you choose thermos over a replacement clutchfan, make sure you get the top hose to seal properly after the thermoswitch copper capillary tube has been inserted into it. I used two hose clamps for mine and squeezed the bejesus out of the hose (by using a socket to tighten the clamps, rather than a screwdriver), leaving a 5mm gap between the two hose clamps. It's the hobo way :P

If I still had my clutchfan I'd stick a flap of cardboard in it so my car sounded like a harley.
And I'd buy pimp wire rims & put spokey dokeys on them. This is my crap post for the day. |
