Aux Electric Fan - Where is it? 900 1991

Hi,

I'm a newbie - I have a 91 940 Turbo. When I bought it (in January) I was given a 14" auxillary electric fan made by Four Seasons and told to install it before using the A/C.

Well - it's 30 degrees celcius and I have balck leather interior = I FINALLY decide to install the thing.

Problem is, from the sounds of it the old one should have been mounted between the radiator and the intercooler (about 2.5" of clearance) whereas this one is about 3.5" inches deep!

Does it make sense to install this in front of the intercooler?

My thought is that I need to get one from a wreckers, as this thing is way to thick - however - I don't know if it is indeed supposed to go between the intercooler and rad!

Does anyone have any pictures and advice?!

It is just behind the grill. Pop the hood (bonnet depending where your at), remove front grill clips (squeeze and pull up) and pull grill slightly up and out (two tabs at the bottom hold it in place in slots).

Your fan is now exposed. You should have a metal strip to which the fan mounts. I'm going to be outside in a bit, I can get you picture if needed.

Super!

Thank you for the quick reply!

Unfortunately the old fan is nowhere to be found (we just moved - to a place with a garage! WOO HOO!)

So the fan is indeed in front of the intercooler then - my next mission is to find where to Electrical connectors are so that I can wire it in.

Hood, bonnet, whichever suits you best - i'm a first generation Canadian, as my father is proud Limey.
