Guest Anonymous Posted December 31, 2002 Share Posted December 31, 2002 Ford Taurus 3.8L Radiator Fan Motor Assembly 1991-1995 Can anyone tell if this fan is the one that matches up to the JTR radiator ? Thanks Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nullbound Posted December 31, 2002 Share Posted December 31, 2002 yes, that's right. you'll have to make brackets to mount it, but it'll work with the jtr recommended radiator or an aftermarket radiator like the griffin or howe models. you can scour the junkyards or get a new taurus fan here: http://www.autobodypartswholesale.com/cgi-bin/autobodypartswholesale/F160912.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Juday Posted January 1, 2003 Share Posted January 1, 2003 Yes, all good info. Here is a shot of that fan mounted on the van radiator. I liked the factory look so I used the plastic top mount from the f-body. The radiator is all rubber mounted with the oem rubber. JY parts, cost me $80:rad $40, fan $40. Easy install with the JTR lower mount (lower it another 3/8" so your cap clears the hood). Only thing else you need to mount the fan is a simple piece of sheet metal bent into a Z shape to attach it on the drivers side. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Anonymous Posted January 1, 2003 Share Posted January 1, 2003 Mike,In addition to Ryan, my notes indicate that Dan Juday maybe a source of info on what "cooling" works (a search function may be appropriate). Dan has some good installation pictures.The official "JTR" radiator has apparently been changed to a 1985-92 Full size Chevy van 4.3 Litre V6 since the Camaro radiator is fairly extinct. My notes also indicate the electric fan from a 1986-95 Taurus Sable,86-94 Lincoln Continetal, 94-97 T Bird and there are 1 and two speed versions.

theBrit Posted January 3, 2003 Share Posted January 3, 2003 Thanks for the info, I like the finshed look Dan. I just got my engine in for the first time last night. Boy it realy sits sung in the back of the engine bay. Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
utvolman99 Posted January 8, 2003 Share Posted January 8, 2003 I have also found that there are some Tempos that have a very similar fan. They have the same 2 speed motor and some fan blade the shroud is just a little different. It has one of the bottom corners cut off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
