[doc] radiator fans circuit

["westleymills2003" <westleymills2003@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

hi all,ok iv been working on my car, want to get it on the road in 
the next month or so{had it over 2 years and havnt used it yet}iv 
just got the engine running perfectly apart from one problem but il 
post a seperate question for that one,
        anyway this problem{or is it} i had that little silver box 
goe faulty in the relay place,that makes my fans turn off when they 
shouldnt,{took it apart and when it gets hot it breaks the circuit 
to the fans,{its supposed too but not as soon as it does,so i bent 
the flat brassy thing thats desighned to bend when hot and the fans 
stay on longer now althoe still not perfect so i need to order a new 
one}
          its a Canadian car and when the temp gauge gets to above 
the quater mark{i think 30} the fans cut in for about 30 secs it 
does this on and off until the temp at one time went to 100 just 
below the red then i shut it down having noticed this.
           after temporarily bodging the silver box that caused this 
i found a switch under my dash,it manualy controls the radiator,i 
can switch them on even when the engine is stone cold,its not a 
factory job,
           my question is WHY does the delorean have this silver box 
thats caused my problem,the last car i built had 2 radiator fans 
connected to a battery with a thermastat in the middle so when the 
engine got hot they turned on and when the engine cooled they turned 
off,
