Hi folks
I am just starting to change the cam belt on my 300 Tdi and while I have everything in bits I am going to fit an electric cooling fan and remove the viscous fan.
Having battled with the cooling fan shroud I am wondering if it will do anything useful if I have an electric fan 'pushing' air from the front of the radiator, and whether there is any reason to refit the shroud, so the question is what has everyone else with an electric fan done? Shroud or no shroud?
Some thoughts or advice would be appreciated!
While thinking about this I also wondered whether there is anything I should do about the intercooler - the cooling shroud is designed to give some airflow to the intercooler from the viscous fan so if I put an electric fan in to cool the radiator is there anything I should do to help the intercooler?
Many thanks for any advice!
