how far can I drive without an electric fan and shroud?
I brought my car in for a new radiator and the guy busted up and cracked the electric fan and the shroud....he says it was like that before!!

anyway.... I can't seem to find a fan and shroud anywhere used.

how much can I drive with out it?

i would not want to get stuck idling for any period of time. just watch the gauge (hopefully aftermarket gauge) like a hawk.

good luck.

Yeah I kinda figured that....but am anxious to get this beast back on the road...wasn't sure how often the fan actually kicked on...
At idle makes since!

So...anyone have a used electric fan and shroud I can buy?
