When I first got the car it overheated, put in a 160 thermo, fan, radiator and new relay, no problems for years. Changed engines and now fan won't come on but everything is hooked and gets electricity. Finally I said screw it and made it manual with a toggle switch. Now I know it's on.

Car: 86 Camaro Z28/ 87 Camaro IROC Engine: 5.0L TPI LB9 / 5.7 TPI w/cam Transmission: 700R4 w/ TCI Racing Parts/ Transcat Axle/Gears: 2.73 Highway Haulers/ 3.23 | 86 Z28 305 TPI single electric fan
Mine overheated a lot as well, found a good used Modine aluminum radiator at junkyard and installed it, new fan relay harness from dealer, spliced in a Hayden adjustable thermostically controlled relay (with radiator probe) from oreillys for like $20 in parallel with the stock relay at 160* so if the hayden relay doesnt kick on the ecm will power on the fan at 225*, 160* thermostat (drilled bypass holes to allow it to untrap airbubbles at idle). Works pretty good, planning to install a dual fan setup i bought from Ramchargers as soon as i figure out how to wire it up.

Car: 1984 Z28 Engine: 305 H.O. Transmission: 700R4 | 1984 Z28 L69 with now re- installed electric fan. My car came (to me) with a ****ty belt driven fan without a shroud. That car overheated until just a month or so ago!( I have owned this beast for over 2 years now!!!) So I decided to get an electric fan and had to hook it up through a toggle switch. I didn't want to deal with knowing if the fan switch was going to kick in or not!! The car came from the factory with a single electric fan. Also, the A/C was ripped out of the car before I purchased it. (along with EVERY piece of emission equipment)

Car: 1986 T/A Engine: 305 TPI Transmission: 700R4 | I own an '86 T/A with a 305 TPI. It currently has a single electric fan.
The most interesting thing is that the mount used on my T/A is the same mount used in my '83 Chevy X-11 Citation. I figured there would be a shroud in the T/A. |

Car: 1984 Pontiac Trans Am Engine: 305 ci V8 L69 (5.0-HO) Transmission: 5-speed stick (3.73) | '84 T/A...L69 = Electric Fan (single)
that's not currently turning on properly (so the car runs just fine at 40mph and above...but if I dip below that for too long the heat guage approaches the red fairly quickly (and boiled my coolant over...gah!)
Sooo...mine might be getting a new fan...perhaps now's the time to install aftermarket dual fans. (Figure it's either the fan or the temp switch that's broken) |

Car: 1999 Pontiac T/A Firehawk Engine: ***'s Engine Transmission: T56 | '84 Z28 HO (L69), single electric fan.
'84 V6 sport coupe, single belt driven clutch fan.
I dunno what you're trying to find here, but my experience (FWIW) has been that the "high performance" (L69 or TPI) '84-'86 cars got the single electric, while the rest got a belt driven fan. |
