Title: Re: Radiator fan switch Post by: fORGOTTEN on November 16, 2013, 04:15:47 PM Probably top hose.
Title: Re: Radiator fan switch Post by: Olds on November 16, 2013, 04:57:18 PM In many ways the adjustable ones are the easiest to fit and allows you to set the temp to suit and cost about £25 from CBS.
I think the running temp of the 4.3 v6 is about 200 to 210 F so I guess a fixed switch of, on 100 off 95 C (212-203F) should be about right. Check what the recommended running temp is.

Title: Re: Radiator fan switch Post by: fORGOTTEN on November 16, 2013, 08:55:11 PM Soooooo apparently 180 to 200 degrees is the running temp. Well so some forum said.
