The reason for that isn't necessarily to cool the engine but to cool the aircon condenser. If the condenser becomes too hot, then it doesn't cool the refrigerant, and there is no transfer of heat. Most cars will do something like this. Many cars have a "pusher" fan behind the grille to suit this purpose, like my '91 Mazda MX-6 partscar. I'm thinking of taking that (relatively small) fan and fitting it to the intercooler on my 1990 900t... On the C900, the compressor won't engage if there is not enough refrigerant pressure. Sounds great for an owner of a 900 with escaped A/C, but - no, in such a situation the fan still isn't engaged. Oh well!
