Got interupted on the last one. For an almost failsafe tstat get a switch from an 80's Xcar. Never had any problem with them, but they are mostly only good for backups as they trigger at 227* IIRC! I ran one alone on my 84 Mustang and it did ok, like I said without a/C in a car you'd be surprised at how seldom they actually need to run! Most of the aftermarket fan controllers are total crap, IMHO. I bought a good unit for my S-10 and the thing actually melted the relay in it! Total crap. One of the reasons I just use the switch for now. I have to do some reaserach to see what I may use. I've been noodling the idea of picking up an XJ Cherokee ECU for my American. The XJ ecu supports both a cooling fan trigger and cruise control. The YJ one I run now does neither. Even if I add the ecu with those features in I plan on leaving the switch in place. Never knwo when you will want to turn it on. -- Mark Price Morgantown, WV 1969 AMC Rambler, 4.0L, EFI, T-5 2004 Grand Cherokee Laredo, 4.7L, Quadratrc II " Chronic Pain Hurts" -------------- Original message ---------------------- From: Wrambler242@xxxxxxxxxxx > I mentioned the X car fan becasue if it would fit on the American, which I > doubt, it is very old school looking! > Even though it has -plastic it is the old period looking stuff the heater cases. > > -- > Mark Price > Morgantown, WV > 1969 AMC Rambler, 4.0L, EFI, T-5 > 2004 Grand Cherokee Laredo, 4.7L, Quadratrc II > " Chronic Pain Hurts" > > -------------- Original message ---------------------- > From: Tom Jennings <tomj@xxxxxxx> > > OK, I'll try it. > > > > The AMerican though, it's got a 20 amp generator, meaning it's probably > > good for 10 amps at 2400 highway cruise rpm.
