First of all this Board is amazing, the 
insight and willingness to share 
knowledge is just awesome.

You may recall that I kind of
started the hot-running V8
thread. I want to tell everyone
that when checking their fusible
link - don't just look at it, take it
out. Mine was cracked and the
ONLY way I could have known
was to take it out.

Now that it has been replaced
I've found that the electric fan
only comes on when I turn on
the A/C. I'm guessing from the
sound and what I've read it is
the highest speed.

When I turn the A/C off, the 
electric fan turns off regardless
of engine temp.  I have yet to play
with the G82 and G83 sensors,
but it doesn't seem as if that test
would address this issue, although
I'm curious to see what happens
if I disconnect G83 sensor.

Any thoughts or WAGs?
