Default V8 cooling fans

Can't think why your electrics have changed the way they operate. But, it surely makes perfect sense to circulate under bonnet air and keep that big mass of iron a little cooler. The heat generated by those enormous exhaust headers when at rest is considerable. Stand by the car with the fans running and you will feel the hot air being blown through. ACCS fit an adjustable thermostatic switch and bypass the ignition switch so this all happens in a controllable way. Peter
