Re: Injector cooling fan times



Pardon me for being ignorant - I am new to the marque - and
loving it I might add.  Am I to understand that it is that little
injector cooling fan that makes all that noise after I shut off
my car, and not the much bigger cooling fan?  And the purpose
being . . . . prevent vapor lock?  I have much confusion
(obviously) about the cooling circuit in my car.  Is the turbo in
the same circuit - seems I've read something about a second water
(coolant) pump for the turbo - and radiator, and fan?
