Wait, where is the AC fan under the E30 hood (guessing this is in the Bentley, though)?

[RickSloan]

really??? its in front of the ac condenser. Both are in front of the rad

[Lurker27]

OH! Ok, thanks!

<--- idiot.

lol its cool its cool, you just better do lots of reading in that bently and on here before you start that swap!!!

My dad has been using the AC fan in his E24 for about a year and it works well. If you put it on a relay and switch the relay with an adjustable thermoswitch it works like it was a factory setup!

I'd never worked on the AC system before, so just one of them things.


Glad to hear this seems to be a permanent solution.

What would be the CFM rate of the E30 A/C fan ??

Also I guess it is a pusher fan right ??

I believe that if is more than 1600-1700CFM it might be enough to cool the E28 radiator, but in Florida, I dont know...
Also the A/C fan will run any time you switch on the aircond, and via a relay, so the wiring will be quite easy as it is already present. just a few mods.

I sorta didnt like the stock fan since its a bit loud for me and since the A/C condesor is between the fan and the rad. I got a universal 14" fan from the bay, I had one before and its nice and quiet. Using stock wiring is FTW!
