Dumb fan question
I was told last week that my electric fan on the Firebird should be blowing towards the radiator not the engine, is this correct? Right now it's blowing towards the engine and he said I just need to reverse the wires to correct this.
Any input is appreciated.
Thanks,
Dave

Re: Dumb fan question
The fan needs to PULL air thru the radiator, not push the incoming air back to the front. Kick the dude in the nuts that told u to reverse the wires, or better yet tell him you did it and it cools sooooo much better, and that he has to do it also, then laugh when his motor blows up from overheating, lol.

Re: Dumb fan question
I didn't think that sounded right, lol. It was a junior in high school I bought some Firebird rims off of last week.
