I loved Corbett.. but then again I haven't been there in the rainy season yet


I can't wait

 

I really dont think the switch will help much, once the water is in the motor its wet, once you turn the switch back on its still wet IMO

also I do know someone from NJ who had one on his fan and it caused all kinds of trouble, dont know if it was his wiring job though lol

this is one taken apart, you can see the rust on it

that was tried by sport-atv and it didnt cool enough, he took it offhe used a clutch fan from a tj

 

sorry I just meant that he used a clutch fan from a tj and it didnt cool enough, he went back to just the electric

 

arent our fans supposed to withstand stuff like water though? its a jeep!

 

hahaha thats to funny

you WOULD think Jeep would have figured that out, but they screwed us with a wide open fan motor, even though they know Spal makes 100% waterproof fans , check out the pics i posted link to of the nice holy motor

 

Yeah, unfortunately the only real solution is a sealed motor (see expensive & seals wear quick). Sorry, electrics and water just don't play well together.

edit: I bet if someone took the time to fab an appropriate fan shroud a clutch fan WOULD work. Any fan needs a good shroud to work properly.

 

yeahh so uh eric.. like i was saying i think i'll hold off with diving into the lakes at corbett

 

x2 without the shroud its not worth even bothering
