fans

HI guys
Wonder if any of you can help, i was tinkering under the bonnet yesterday and i happened to notice the electric fans were going in opposite directions, is this right basically one sucking and one blowing
Cheers in advance

they should both be sucking, swap the wires over on the one that is blowing, it should then turn the other way, unless of course you actually have 2 different fans fitted.

When you say sucking is that into the engine bay
Thanks in advance

I had the very same problem while i was doing just a routine check-over not long after purchase,i noticed one of the fans was not shifting much air then realized i had a fan running in the wrong direction,my loom appeared to be un-molested also i just pushed in the barbs in the twin terminal plug and reversed the connections strange really almost seemed like it had always been this way,thing is unless you had over-heating problems you may not notice can't say it changed the fan duration afterwards though but i am far happier it is now correct
