[DMCForum] Re: Water pump removed...

["mw98gt" <mw98gt@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

John Hervey has some nice products.  If my motor looked more 
presentable I would go for those SS fuel lines.  Very sharp!

His fan fix kit seems weird to me though.  I thought one of the 
annoyances with the original setup besides the main hazard was that 
the fan fail light would come on and off with the fans, his kit 
states that the light will come on and off with the fans.
