Default Fans Direction...

call me dumb or whatever...i just couldn't find any info on this...

are the radiator fans supposed to push or pull air through the radiator? The reason i ask is because i can sit there with my fans ON HIGH and the car will NOT cool down...they are currently PULLING air through the radiator...

so yeah.

Pull air thru the way as if you are driving forward.

Try separating the condenser from the radiator and
blow them both out with compressed air. You may
find a lot of fine debris blocking them.
