I am in the process of removing an aftermarket 13 " FLEX FAN from my 4/4 in
favor of an electric fan. After about 2K miles the water pump started to
weep antifreeze and the pump bearing developed some play. I attributed this
to the size and weight of the FLEX FAN. It was also very noisy at speed.
However, it did a great job at keeping the temp down
(180 degrees F) in any weather and driving condition. I hope the electric
will work as well. I've made some inquiries regarding the original plastic
fan and was told to check the junkyards! Good Luck!
Regards,
John

Subject: Re: Re: An Alternative to Electric Fan?
Anyone have sources for a 4 blade fan for Morgan 4/4's (with 1500 Cortina
engines).. Mine has a two blade fan (unless there's a missing matched
blade). I have an electric fan but would like to upgrade the standard fan.
