    Been thinking about running a electric fan. What are the benefits?

    So if your alt can supply the needed amperes to supply the system and still charge the batt how could that still be putting a load on the system hmmmm dunno I smell poop around that story your alt doesnt create enuff drag to be a problem but what do I know

    I am using a '92 Ford Taurus cooling fan $35.00 from the salvage yard that i believe puts out about 2800CFM and i have it wired to the High speed to cool the AC condenser as well..
    The Bosch relay kit came from ebay for $25.00
    I used to run these on my Mazda RX7

    Here are the pics.

    It fits neatly on the Hilux radiator:

    Plenty of room or gap i should say:

    Here is the wiring done the right way.. the trigger comes from underneath the dash by the steering column:

    1992 1992 1992 1992 1992 1992 ..any of those years should work make sure it's a 1992 tho anything built before 1992 or after 1992 is proably different from the 1992 model . And would probably be more of a hassle because its not from a 1992 model.

    only one issue thou in that hole statement is fans are pretty much free power because if your e fan is all ways running you have an issues or have it hard wired in

    that is the great thing about e fans is they turn on and off to keep your engine cool


    personsanle my self the cheapest best way is to run a honda fan switch and relay and have it hard wired to the battery so it can turn on when ever it wants even when ya have the key out
