Yea tomorrow when it quits freaking raining like the worlds ending here in dallas lol im gonna see if the fan is a new one if it is then ill try to find the relay and fuse for it cause im lost in that department. I was just told to get additive cause the fuel here is 10% ethanol and it needs to run colder.
