So you're "robbing" power from the clutch supply line to run the fan?  I
don't know anything about electricity, so I don't know whether there's a
limit to how much heavy duty stuff you can run off one lead.

Is the compressor and its attachment to the engine the ground for this
circuit?    What'd you do for the ground for the extra fan?
