Radiator Fan Questions

[David.Ullrich at ferguson.com]

Yes, it looks like mine are all missing other than the top cover. I appear to be missing the bottom, left and right cardboard air ducts. How much of a difference would that make? Anyone know a good source for these? Anyone, by chance, have a used set to sell (parting a car?) You can see a diagram of the missing parts at http://catalog.exist.ru/pic/parts/VAG01564.gif Also, I notice there are different part numbers for "warm countries". Is the USA considered a "warm country?" I'm in SE Virginia if it makes any difference.

Thanks,

Dave

> Patient is a 1987.5 Coupe GT (2.3 NG) How much air does your radiator fan pull? Mine doesn't create the tornado like air flow that my other cars seem to have.

another factor could be the air guides that are supposed to be around
the radiator area.  Those are the cardboard things below, to the side,
and on top of the radiator.  They are often in such rough shape at some
point that they don't get reinstalled.
