    And I sound like a fool again. I need to brush up on my mech info and understanding of the VX engine. I am so used to electric fans so I thought the main fan had a kicker like the A/C motor. I'm only 4 years out of my auto class and already rusty...

    Thanx guys. I guess there's nothing wrong then.

    Don't feel too bad...the greater majority of us,( I include myself in this statement) started off "VX life" in your shoes...having little experince with "modern" vehicle technology.

    The last cars I did any "serious" work on before the VX, were a 64 Impala, & a 70 Mustang...gave me a grasp of the basics, but little else that would be helpful in understanding the workings of a modern EFI system with computer controlled "everything".

    Just keep hangin' around, & reading the forums...it's amazing how much information you can find around here...

    Also, THANKS, to all those that have contributed to my continuing education on this, my favorite subject ever...

    Yeah, what he said! I was 100% completely automotive ignorant prior to owning my VX. After I blew up my 2000 Xterra and was fatefully returned with my 2001 VX, I decided its high time I learn at least the basics, and have a better understanding of how things work and what needs to be done to keep things going smooth and strong. Now, exactly 2 years later, I am 100% more in the know, and a lot more confident when it comes to working on and caring for vehicles.

    Same here I had only changed oil prior to the VX - well a little more but not much. My tool collection - supplies and knowledged has expanded since then.
