Title: 2.2 rad fan ?
Post by: omegod on 21 June 2013, 21:45:04

Should a 2.2  petrol rad  fan, the one inside the engine bay , run all the time i.e starting from cold?

No! It should only kick in when the temperature reaches/exceeds 92-95deg. I reckon you have a sticking fan relay. IIRC, it is the big green one in the wedge shaped fuse box next to the Battery :-\

check the basics first. any debris lodged in front of the rad stopping airflow? then as phil says check the relay.

My fan's not on all the time but comes on fairly quickly and the temperature guage reads low. Temperature sensor maybe?
