Sambo 1,447 Posted February 28 Report Share Posted February 28 I want to convert my D21 to run an electric fan, just because. I've found a whole bunch of thermo switches that will fit the available hole, but I'm not sure what temperature range I want. It's a bog stock Z24 engine (carb, sohc, low as anything compression). It does do a bit of sitting in traffic and the odd light thrashing etc, like any daily driver. Everything seems to be available in the right format from 'On 85 - Off 80' through to 'On 105 - Off 100'. Any advice? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mof 13,659 Posted February 28 Report Share Posted February 28 The one I put in my Samurai was on 92 off 82 and it was spot on Hope that helps 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
kpr 6,497 Posted February 28 Report Share Posted February 28 You'll want the "off" slightly higher than the thermostat temperature. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Sambo 1,447 Posted February 28 Author Report Share Posted February 28 Thanks @kpr. That's exactly what I needed. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Beaver 8,726 Posted February 28 Report Share Posted February 28 Keen to see how you get on. I wouldn't mind ditching the mech fan on my d21 either. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Sambo 1,447 Posted February 28 Author Report Share Posted February 28 I wasn't planning to do it immediately. I just have a hole in the cooling system that needs a bung and I thought I might as well put the correct thingo in the whatsit to save draining coolant later. It doesn't actually look very hard though, so maybe I will do it soon. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
