LandyManLuke Posted May 3, 2008 Share Posted May 3, 2008 mondeo fans fit well on 200tdi radiators. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scotian Posted May 3, 2008 Share Posted May 3, 2008 I know it sounds silly...but I;ve got a bosch fan from a Vaxhaul Corsa fitted to mine and its more blowy than a really blowy thing. I've wired it with a relay straight to the fan (bypassed the resister that is there) and it has some blow on it. Sucks in small children off the pavement!! It also fits the radiator very well and I have to turn it off alot otherwise it over cools and I dont get any heat from the heater. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redben101 Posted May 3, 2008 Share Posted May 3, 2008 IIRC Citroen Xantia fans are very good as they are a sealed motor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Milemarker Type S Posted May 5, 2008 Share Posted May 5, 2008 size of the fan is 10"needs to be 12v Tha cheap and cheerful option would be one from a car breakers- I picked up a 12v 10" one from a discovery- 1992ish I think- for £10. It is made by Spal so is a recognised make. Works perfectly on my 200Tdi 90- even when being worked hard in challenges. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TSD Posted May 5, 2008 Share Posted May 5, 2008 what electric fan would fit on a V8 radiator? as theyre bigger than a 200tdi's Two Citroen BX fans with their square frames fit nicely but they really want to be in front of the rad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gav- Posted May 5, 2008 Share Posted May 5, 2008 probably a bit difficult to get hold of now, but i have two 12" vauxhall cavalier fans on a v8 rad. works well and easy to fit as the cowlings are taller than the v8 rad so its easy to clamp the fans to the rad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
