Has anyone ever repacked one of these? Mine seems a little loose, and i'm tossing up whether to stick with it or go to an electric fan. |

electric fans suck Yeah they can be as far as i know, would have to have a good look at it. What's wrong with leccy fans? I wouldn't mind just sticking with the viscous hub fan, but orking on it would be a lt easier with a leccy fan. |

I reckon suzukis are the wrong shape to get enough airflow through without an engine fan helping it and electric fans never pull enough air through |

They dont seem to like water and mud for some reason. Simple mechanical is the way to go. Dan |

I wanna ditch mine for a thermo.. Think about this.. Sure.. you may have a fan that constantly cools your engine but go for a swim and she will spray the water all over the engine bay and snap blades (worse case). I would also think you would get a little more engine response from not having to drive the fan off the belt.. So I think a Thermo with a switch would be a good thing ?? |

whats better, cool engine and not always being worried about the temp or some water splashed in the engine bay? you do get some more power but its not worth it |

Thats why I loosen me fan belt when going for a deep swim. Spraying water over the engine bay, no problems, zuk is fairly well water resistant. |
