Hi folks,

My cooling fan isn't working - it's the type with no resistor.

I have a couple of spare fans in the garage, so I plan to put one of those in (swapping the resistor for a gold one at the same time).

The fans I have are untested, so I would like to test them on a spare battery to see which is the best one - before putting on the car.

I'm sure I saw a how-to somewhere where the fan was mounted to a makeshift wooden frame and connected to a car battery, but I can't find it anywhere. I think it was one of Arctic's how-to's maybe.

Can anyone point me in the right direction please?
