Fan question on 5000 (some battery involved ...)

[evangelo@mecf.wustl.edu]

Hi everybody,
I am still trying to troubleshoot my starting problems, but I noticed the
following:
When I disconnect the battery and connect it again the fan starts and stays
on for a few minutes, even if the engine is not just cold but frozen ...
Is this normal behaviour or an indication that I have a problem somewhere ?
This is on a 5000 CS Turbo '86.

Thanks
Evangelos
