hmmm.... issue is, my fan won't kick in... and i can't work out for the life of me what's wrong.
Items replaced so far:
Radiator (had a front ender before all of this happened)
Fan switch
In-car temp gauge sender unit
I've shorted out the terminals on the connection to the fan switch and the fan does work, so i'm deeming the issue mechanical. I'm planning to change the header tank top, as i think that it may not be sealing properly... and then if i do the thermostat as well, there will be no other issue why the fan shouldn't kick in when it should....
(it's right pissing me off now!)
