I would prefer that the electric fan not be
seen from inside the engine bay. What say those with experience in this?
It looks to me like most OEM applications are pushers. Having said that, my
experience on the Spridget list leads me to believe those cars are very
sensitive to radiator obstruction and the electric fans only seem to work as
pullers.
On my BGT I installed a 15" as a pusher and I'm having overheating problems.
That may not be the cause, but I do intend to reinstall it as a puller,
after I check the timing, thermostat, and radiator for internal blockage.
On my TR4 I intend to install a puller because there seems to be so much
more room on that side to reach it for adjustment, installation, maintenance,
replacement....

As he stared at her ample bosom, he daydreamed of the dual Stromberg
carburetors in his vintage Triumph, highly functional yet pleasingly formed,
perched prominently on top of the intake manifold, aching for experienced
hands, the small knurled caps of the oil dampeners begging to be inspected and
adjusted as
described in chapter seven of the shop manual.
