ERA Pusher Fans - loose wire?

[66AC]

I have my pusher fans on their own circuit with their own switch on the dash. They do not come on in a thermal switch sense, I simply have to flip a Lucas toggle and they come on. In this setup, it "gives me something to do" especially when coming into slow or stopped traffic. It also adds another switch to the dash which, personally, I like.

How effective are they? Quite. I can see the water temp hold or even lower depending upon the outside temperature.

Yes, they are surprisingly effective at low speeds. I have my own personal "acid test" with them. When I take a good ride, on a hot day, and pull directly in to the garage and shut her off, without ever using the pusher fans, the thermostatically controlled puller fan will stay on for a couple of minutes there in the garage, with the hood open. But, if I turn the pusher fans on about a block or so from the house and pull in to the garage with them all on, and shut the car off and the pushers off as well, the engine is not hot enough to have the puller come on at all. I think, in a pinch, the pushers could actually get me by without the puller at all... maybe.
