[TR] Push or pull

I use both mounted as Dave describes with the electric pusher manually 
controlled when I can see the need for it coming up (long light, slow 
traffic, etc).

FWIW, the original crank (on cars so equipped and still having the crank 
hole in the rad) can still be used.  I had to remove one section of rib on 
the fan guard, then the (slow) insertion of the crank just pushes the fan 
blade out of the way and in it goes.
