Walt, >From your description you have one or two possible problems. The first may be corrected after you install the Overheat Protector. If the engine still runs hot you will need a new cooling fan switch part # 100816G.

When I have the a/c switched off on my car, the fans only turn on when the thermostat tells it to. The fans turn on when the needle is just above the center notch (220 degrees.) When I am running the a/c, the fans come on with the compressor, so the engine runs cooler. In this case the guage reads midway between the 220 notch and the one below it. Is this a problem? Walt
