rad fan behavior

[Brady Moffatt]

Hi George,

On my 86 4kq, the rad fan does not come on at all until the engine is up to
full operating temp, slightly over thermostat temp actually.

If I shut the car down when the fan is running, it shuts off too, but is
likely to cycle one or two more times on the after-run relay.

Mine has only one speed: hurricane. There is a certain cool factor (pun
intended) to a hurricane fan that comes on after the car is shut off.

Cheers,
Brady Moffatt
