Re: cooling fan

[Compaq Desktop Customer <vanambum@silyn.net>]

Thanks for the advice on my bypassed cooling fan switch.  For those who thought I was looking for a 'quick fix', my cooling fan switch is still there and works just fine and I wasn't looking for a cheap way out.  I take pride in my Sciroccos just like you guys do even though I don't know a damn thing about mechanics.  :-)  But anyway, the mechanic bypassed the switch so it wouldn't run so hot.  Call me a little paranoid, but the gauge being way up there and that little red light flashing is a little too high for me.  I understand much heat is required for optimum performance, but I think halfway on the gauge is plenty hot to maintain performance.  Am I wrong?  Even with the fan wired the way it is now, the guage goes up to three quarters when I'm really really getting on it, although I don't get that wild all the time.  My 94 Golf(oops, sorry, bad word)ran below half way up the gauge all the time.  And, no, I didn't bypass the cooling fan switch on that.
