Re: engine cooling fan and associated symptoms

ya, lots of potential failure signs depending on how the fan fails. On mine the fan blade assembly failed at the seem, it did it during a second gear pull, when I let off the gas I thought the motor was knocking like hell. I was around the corner from the house and figured screw it, can't make it much worse... popped the hood and saw the ring smacking the fan housing, luckily didnt hit the radiator or anything.

and yes, the Doorman is the closest thing to stock, OE has been discontinued for quite a long time
