Re: [DML] fan troubles

David and Group, I now have two different otterstats to turn on and off at 
about 
10 degree F different depending if you live in a cooler climate and want it 
to turn on less such as David or in the southern hotter climate such as me 
and want the fans to turn on sooner. I have both described on the web site at 
http://www.specialtauto.com/engine.shtml,
At the point on the gauge where Davids is turning on is where mine turn on 
with the cooler unit 92c x 2.13 = 196F and the 97c x 2.13 = 207F. When I 
install the hotter, unit my gauge is about 1/8th above the 160 / 2nd mark. 
The otterstat is turned on by the temp of the coolant, since there should be 
no air in the line because he has a air bleeder, then it would be resonable 
to expect that maby the Circuit breaker is heating up and turning the fans on 
and off . The only other thing I can think of would be air getting in the 
line continuiously like another was doing earlier. A friend of mine found out 
he had a leaking head gasket and another reported air was leaking in around 
the otterstat. David, It's a good question.
I would maby opt for air getting in the line as fast as it's bleeding out. 
Naturally I could be wrong. What about the thermostat sticking open some and 
the radiator hasn't had time to cool the coolant down.
