Cooling fan question
Does anyone know for sure if the initial fan temp setting in the tune (192*) is set for anything more than 25% fan strength, will the fan be running all the time--even at coolant temp below 192*?

Here is the stock tune fan settings.
Note, If you are going to make the fan run at least 50% of the time by bring it on at lower temps, and/or run at more that 90%, cut the fan plug connector out on the side of the radiator, and solder the leads together with heat shrink covering instead. The wire coupling connector is a weak link, and if the fan runs too much, you will melt the plugs on the connector.
Also to point out, if you are having over-heating problems, them check the front of the radiator for leaves and debris that you may have sucked in and blocking airflow through the radiator.
