I have a 90 s13, whenever i drive when i shut off the car the fans kick in and stay on for 10 to 15 minutes. The temp never gos over half way. Just wondering if its a problem or should i upgrade?

lol its supposed to do that. when your car reaches a certain temp it cuts the fans on to cool it down, and stays on until it reaches another temp. such as a 220*F cut on point and a 180*F shut off point. thats the reason why the temp never goes up half way because its doing what its supposed to do

what are you saying, the fans stay going when the car is off? I had trouble reading your post.

the last part of your post makes you sound like a real creeper.

i know they go on for that reason but i meant would upgrading the radiator or somethin cool it quicker so the fans dont run as long?

bfeng24 · 07-06-2008, 02:10 PM

yeah when i the car is off the fans kick in and stay on for like 15 minutes.

take a automotive class or something while youre still in school, or search! but i kinda doubt such a simple question has ever been talked about before.

well call me dumb but I never had my 240 with stock fans so i dont know but I have never heard of a fan continuing to run after the car is shut off. I will be watching this

I think everybody in this thread is dumb as shit, the original poster seems to have the typing ability of a koala bear, and the responders are too cracked out to realize what the guy is asking. I guess its just time to sit back and watch.
