[Mgs] Electric cooling fan for 71 MGB

[Paul Hunt]

Factory electric fans always shut off with the ignition, it depends on the 
fitter as to what after-market fans do, could be either.  Personally I think 
to have them running after the engine is switched off is not a good thing, 
it could run the battery down if the switch stuck on, or at worst could burn 
out the car as happened several times a few years ago with some modern 
French car or other (and half the owners house as the car was in the garage 
at the time).

Electric thermostat?  Or thermostatic switch?
