Radiator Fans

[debaron]

Hi chaps,

the aftermarket fans I've fitted to the new 4.6 conversion aren't up to the job.
My original spal ones were knackered and at £240 each seems a bit optimistic!!!

Any ideas on suitable replacements?

I've previously had a lot of success with Kenlowe Fans and controllers. Their online presence is not very good but you can get them from a lot of the usual motorsport outlets.

What was the spec/make of the ones that weren't succesful?

Just replaced mine, work a treat, original plug fitting as well.

SPAL list some at £109 each, the part number ends in an 's' instead of an 'a' which might be why they are blowers rather than the suckers that I think we need. They shouldn't be £200ish each though, I would still hunt out a pair of slimline kenlowes like http://www.minisport.com/mini-spare-parts/info_KLF...

Are they wired the right way round ? They can spin both ways.

The original fans are fine, what trouble are you having?
