At what temp should my electric fans kick in if my thermostat opens at 180*? I live in a relatively hot climate.
Thanks in advance.

Electric fans...at what temperature?
- Thread starter suprabad
- Start date
I have a 160 degree stat and dual electrical fans. The relay for the fans is set at 160 degrees. My temps dont exceed 160 "i have an autometer gauge". When its really hot outside (100F+) its about 180, although it gets a little higher sometimes. Concidering that i live in florida, am very satisfied with those temps.
I run a 180* stat in the summer (6mo), and 195* for winter (better heater operation. My fans are set to come on at 190*, and off at 180*. My car always runs cool.:icon_razz
at what temp do the stock A/C fans kick in again? I thought some tied their electric fans to this but it was a touch higher?
They are run from 2 relays down on frame near the battery. They get their 'on' signal from a sensor in the high side a/c line along the Rt frame between the afm & firewall. The pressure switch is set at approx 225psi of 'highside pressure.
Some may disagree with this, but I run my FAL fans constantly. I've currently got the 220 model (I believe) and I will look into adding a pusher to the front of the radiator some time down the road.

I've considered the possibility of running a pusher in addition to the two electric fans but I've never seen it on a Supra.
Anybody run this setup? How's it work?
My car came with a pusher fan in front of the radiator, I swear it looks stock. All I know is that I can feel a blast of wind 20 feet from the car with the stock clutch fan and pusher together.

It is stock. They call it a Condensor Blower Assy...part #88590-14010
I don't think all cars had it. I THINK it was on the turbo models, but not the n/a.:1zhelp:
You know...if someone asked, I suppose I could scan these supra bodyshop guide pages I got off ebay. Create a file so they could be looked at, and printed by anyone. The part #s are there, with blow-up diagrams of the body parts that get replaced from collisions.:biglaugh:
But maybe they are already on the internet...does anyone know of a link?

I don't know of a link for that. Speaking for myself, I'd sure like to have it.
