rad fan

which way should my rad fan spin? thanks

Not quite sure from the top of my head... but it should suck air from the outside, through the radiator, so you should feel the wind blowing through the engine bay ;)
I once had it spinning in the wrong direction due to a mistake in the new wiring loom... got kinda warm whilst at stand still... took me quite a while to figure out that this was the cause :sad2:

Anti-clockwise will suck

cheers dudes think ive got it right now. i did have it the other way round aswell.

so standing in front of the car the fan should spin towards the drivers side? just to be sure cheers

look at the angle of the fins, it needs to pull air through the radiator into the bay.

hold a piece of paper in front of the rad if your unsure, if it pulls it towards rad its right, if it blows it away its wrong
