Need for Aftermarket Electric Fans?
A PO, among many other, ahem, "modifications" added two aftermarket electric fans to the rear deck lid and wired them into the fuel relay. I don't even know if they work. I'm slowly trying to remove all the crap that this car had when I bought it and clean up all the extra wiring so would like to trash these.
Although I live in a warm climate, the car is now mainly a long-term project that doesn't get driven in heavy traffic and temps. here usually top out in the mid-90's, unlike the higher Summer temps in the Midwest. Regardless, any reason to think these are really necessary since the car didn't come from the factory with them? Thanks. Jeff Last edited by Taxi!; 03-12-2016 at 11:10 AM.. |

Here's a pic. You can see the very professional wiring job that was done.

Might well depend on what engine performance enhancements have been added to the engine.
And then we have this: http://www.pelicanparts.com/techarticles/911_extra_cooling/911_extra_cooling.htm Last edited by wwest; 03-12-2016 at 11:57 AM.. |

Is there an AC condenser above the fans?

Joe Bob,
There was, but I've performed an A/C delete so it's been removed. Actually, thefans were between the grilles and the condensor. |

Delete them, just dead weight and their are obstructing proper flow to your engine. No AC = No Need.
My 2 cents.
