Another aux fan Q -- dying fan on '90 900 t vert Posted by InnateTech [Email] (#650) [Profile/Gallery] (more from InnateTech) on Tue, 6 Mar 2012 07:42:43 In Reply to: Re: 86 900s passenger side fan not working, aka oldsaab, Mon, 5 Mar 2012 13:56:25 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
While we're talking about the pass. side fan:
is it a sealed unit, or can its bearings (or whatever) be greased?
Mine runs (although sometimes I need to sit there for a minute with the engine running before shut off and wait for the fan to kick on)--but it makes a hell of a noise. Not that whir/hum it should make but rather a screeching clatter, and probably isn't getting up to speed. (Probably sat still too long in storage.) Makes me nervous about the turbo burning out after engine shutoff. In our old 900 after the aux fan died we just used to sit there with the engine running for a couple minutes after parking to try and let things cool....I don't want to treat this one the same way....
How hard is replacing the fan as a very inexperienced DIYer?
