    Default thermo fans

    i was driving around easter saturday and stoped at every garage sale in kadina and moonta and the temperature gauge in the vp went up to just under 1/2 way usually nothing to worry about but each drive was only short
    what would it be

    if i was to buy EF/EL/AU Twin thermo fans or 1998-2003 camry thermo fans use the existing wiring to wire one fan and get a aftermarket thermo kit and wire the other fan and set it to turn on at about 1/2 way between 1/4 and 1/2 on the teperature gauge

    (in other words get twin fans and connect one fan to the exising radiator fan wiring and use that one for the aircon and a extra fan in the summer and get a aftermarket thermo kit and wire that to the other fan to use as a auxillary fan to come on at 1/2 way between 1/4 and 1/2 on the temperature gauge without the aircon going in the winter

    nep, ecu controls the fan, if under 40km/h it will come on at 104 degrees if over 40km/h it won't, fit a thermatic fan switch instead, the stock fan will move more than enough air

    you can get that adjusted if you wanted to,memcal tuners can do it,depends when you want the fan to cut in,but as you say,the only other way is the way you suggested.
