I installed an electric fan in my Bricklin this weekend. I mounted it in front of the air conditioning condensor in "pusher" mode so it supplements the regular fan. I have a switch in the passenger c

John, I am not sure I follow your logic that a front mounted fan would block air flow more than a rear mounted one. It seems to me that all the air which goes in one side must come out the other so b

They and the sensor are from a late '60s Jag XKE coupe with A/C. I had to add a fitting to the radiator for the sensor and make a bracket to mount the fans ala' Cobra. GM John what kind of twin fan a

If you push the air through the radiator in the direction of air flow the fan will increase the velocity of air through the radiator when moving and have the secondary benefit of keeping the fan moto

Scott, I really don't have any proof. But as you point out "I notice most cars use pulling fans" there must be a reason. Greg Momfort makes a good point about having the fan in front to cool its moto

One reason most cars use pulling fans is that there is usually more room behind the radiator. There should be no significant difference in performance. The fan is also less likely to be damaged in a

My Bricklin normally runs a constant 180 degrees. Last week I was caught in a traffic jam in near 100 degree heat. The engine temperature climbed to 250 degrees. The traffic cleared at that point so

Thanks to all the folks who sent advice on electric fans. Since overheating is infrequent on my Bricklin, I think I'll go the simple route and just rig it up with a manual switch. Scott
