When i bought my v8 in april it was fitted with a kenlowe fan, which was 100% fine until the seal on the top rad hose went bad, coupled with a leaky rad.
It wasn't happy in the summer.
Someone (not on this forum) convinced me to swap it for the original mechanical fan. They also kindly repaired my radiator
After fitting fan, flushing and refilling rad with new antifreeze, two things happened:
Car ran under temp, rarely reaching 85;
Fuel consumption went up drastically;
So I unbolted it, reconnected kenlowe and made a really good seal.
It's been running bang on 85 now and hasn't gone anywhere near the red.
There's less noise from the front and she feels quicker again
I think dual kenlowe fans is prob the way to go with a standard radiator, if in traffic a lot in the summer etc. Anyone?
