The other day my fans failed to come on my v-8 converted 1973 914.
Evidently when I put in a new radiator over the winter I failed to suffiently bleed all the air out of the system. I didn't know this, but evidently the thermo sensor for the fans won't operate unless the system is well bled. I put a bleeder valve on the radiator and spent about an hour thourougly bleeding the system and it solved the problem. I hadn't really thought the system would need to be that well bled but...learn something new every day, right? Just thought I would share in the event other converted teener owners may have had the problem and couldn't figure it out. David |
