Re: Update: radiator fan is flaking out Posted by ccb056 [Email] (#1568) [Profile/Gallery] (more from ccb056) on Mon, 26 Jun 2017 07:25:58 In Reply to: Update: radiator fan is flaking out, Jason 5W-30 [Profile/Gallery] , Mon, 26 Jun 2017 07:14:10 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
I replaced both radiator fans with Spal 10" 30100360
Bought on Amazon (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003PB42XC/ref=as_li_tf_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=9325&creativeASIN=B003PB42XC&linkCode=as2&tag=thesaabnetwork), they come with brackets to allow for fit up.
Not sure on the difference between SAAB and Spal flow rates, but the Spal fans are a bit thinner, allowing for easier access in the engine bay.
When I replaced the fans, I also replaced the connectors. Used Deutsch DTP series which are good for up to 25 amp, and much more weather proof than the SAAB originals. Sourced from http://www.deutschconnector.com, but also can be found at mouser, newark, and other electronics retailers. I always use stamped pins, not the solid pins, and they work great with my Pressmaster KRB-0560 F-type ratcheting crimper.
