Different issue, I think Ed. The question was about replacing a mechanical
fan with an electric, not changing the gauge type. The pointer on the CNH
type does exactly the same as on the C/F type, so not really comparable to
an on/off idiot light, and both can make owners paranoid when they suddenly
see them reading higher than they've been used to.
