Cooling fan works. It turns on at the right temp and when the ac compressor kicks on.

In order to do this right, because this site is monitored all the time by Just Answer, you will need to finish this secession by hitting the ACCEPT button, and then starting a new session with the 91 Cougar, just ask for me if you want my help.

Thanks
