nmcmahon83 Posted November 10, 2004 Share Posted November 10, 2004 Hi All, Was driving home from uni, (about 70km down the freeway) when at the end, I stopped to get petrol. LEt the car sit there for a minute or two just to cool down... Anyway, after I filled p and took off again, under acceleration the engine fan was making a really loud woosh noise, as if it was set to *try and blow the engine out of the engine bay* setting... A few tests indicated to me that it wasn't effecting performance, and te temp guage was at a bout a third of the way round. So I kept driving... Now it just seems wierd to be that the fan went on super happy hardcore mode right after I stopped after a longish stint at constant revs... Does anyone know why it did that?
