Convert rad fan
I know this has been asked before but I haven't been able to find out, What electric fan setup would be the best and easiest to use to replace the clutch fan in my 02 4.3 2wd blazer?

RE: Convert rad fan
Just curious why you want to take out the clutch fan for an electric one? I for one would RATHER a clutch fan, you KNOW that it will never not turn on. I had a Trans Am (1988) that had an electric fan and I cant even tell you how many times I had to fight with the sensors, replace them for aftermarket to make sure they turned on and then finally a freaking fan switch that I controlled when that sucker turned on. It would never turn on in time and caused such problems. I would think with a clutch fan at least you KNOW its on, peace of mind I say. lol

RE: Convert rad fan
You are correct in that the fan will almost always be there when required but I really don't like the loud noise it creates. I am willing to put up with the dangers for the reduced noise factor.
I did some more checking and found enough info to get started with a Taurus fan assembly! |
RE: Convert rad fan
As you have found, the 3.8L Taurus V6 E-fan is plentiful in junkyard and cheap, also fits the Blazer's radiator well.
Beware that the E-fans can draw a lot of amps when first switching on. You shouldnt have to worry about this unless you have a lot of high-draw electrical items in your car (ex:amps, off-road lights) Here's a link to a How-to for the E-fan conversion ..... E-Fan How-To - Click |
