"Suck" or "Blow" are two terms that are possibly more descriptive to
some people - the fan either "sucks" air through the radiator or
"blows" it through (as per "pull" or "push").
Before tidying up the wiring on mine, I fired it up and blew a mouthful
of smoke at the front of the radiator (mine is set up as a blower or
pusher - with the engine mounted fan removed). The smoke got sucked
into the fan and came out on the engine side of the radiator... just
the way I wanted it to.
