    I went electric and have had a good experience with it. Cheap and easy too. About $20 for the fan out of a 94 Plymouth Voyager and $60 for the relay switch.

    I think I need to swap out mine as well, I dont care how loud it is as long as it cools. In this heat we are having here mine easily gets up to 211, cools down to 198 or so if I keep moving. Is this an easy thing to do? Anyone have the 'how to' on it?

    Goodpoint, the fan install instructions also mention that for a reminder.

    Talking Update on fan clutch

    Well, I went with the Hayden fan (#2672) from Pep Boys as they had it in stock. They sold it to me for $85.99 with a lifetime warranty so you can't beat that. The four bolts came off with no problem and slid the old one out, transferred the fan, and remounted according to the bulletin the site has provided. She is now running below the middle to the middle of the temp guage in traffic and does not sound loud to me like the claims of the Torqflo. I am just happy it does not run hot anymore in stop and go traffic!! Thanks for the assist and feedback gang!!
