Hi all , has anyone else had this? my fan switch seems to have lowered its temp range , i e . its switching the fans on about 10 degrees earlier and staying on a lot longer trying to get the temp down lower then the engine needs to be confused ( iv checked the temp gauge against my avo metre and whats on the gauge is what it says ) , any ideas ? cheers , Dal

I had 3 fail in as many years. Different makes.

I now run a Kenlow adjustable which just pokes into the top hose and gives me no trouble.

yep was thinking of fitting an adjustable one, the type that are built into an alloy tube that fits inline of the top hose , so does anyone know off the top of their head the size of rad hoses ? ( im assuming 32 or 38 mm ) cheers , Dal
