Dear All, Need to replace the coupe radiator as it is split. Items available on ebay and elsewhere.
Looking at the job it looks like you have to remove the nose cone to replace it. Or do you know of a way to get round that? While the coolant system is empty I thought I would replace the thermostat and fan switch and check the wiring as they are relatively cheap and both seem to give regular trouble over the medium term. Also thought I should run a manual fan switch for summer traffic queues peace of mind as well. The Haynes manual has the spec for the thermostat temperature (opening 85C to 89C) but not the fan switch temperature. I am looking at Lucas SNB710. The part seems to be the right fan switch and is says from 103C and to 98C which sounds fine but others I found were lower figures and of doubtful parentage! Can anyone confirm the right temperatures? I know the instrument is not very accurate, but what temperature is the start of the red arc on the top of the ford temp gauge? I now have an infrared thermometer and can do some proper checking. Thanks Derek. -- -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Quantum Owners Group" group.
