Mike,,

There are people here saying they work. I'd like to hear more from them in regards to their success ;D.. I tested these fans and even attempted to log some temp data reflecting before and after effects of what the oil temp gauge was telling me.. I simply used a white board marker (blue) and marked the spot on the gauge face at its hottest spot while going through down town Napa on a 95 degree day.. Stopped and had lunch, glass of wine and on return trip back, an hour latter and the fans on, when i started the engine, the oil temp gauge was dead on the same spot.... and i noted this same situation on several other rides. I challenge any of you saying they are working for you to to the same thing.. If you're honest with yourself,, you will see the same results.. and thats no bull... These fans do not work.. plain and simple.. take my word or go spend your spend your money, it's a free soci

I know this is old but I can't help myself.  I have been looking at oil cooler fans for some time and after reading this post I am couldn't resist.  If you stop for lunch and a wine and left you fans running, what made you think the oil temperature would drop.  If you left your engine running while you sipped your Chardonnay there may have been some evidence but as most of us would realise, if the engine is stopped, there is no oil flowing through the oil cooler.
Anyway, physics shows that air flow through an oil cooler will transfer heat so the more air flow the better.

Cheers,

GD
