It's my understanding that the stock temp sensor that throws the e-fan on, operates at 210-220 degrees F. I've been told it's the one on the t-stat housing.
Is there a sensor that can operate at a lower temp say 160-180 degreees F?
Would it effect anything else besides the temp that the e-fan starts?
My issue is when having the snow plow attached, I'm heating things up a bit too much. I don't have a temp gauge, only the idiot light. I don't know the exact temp I'm running under those conditions, but I know it's HOT. Snow steams off the hood and the heat coming out of the heater is insane. The coolant overflow tank is on the verge of boiling. My coolant mix is 50/50.
I know the e-fan comes on, I just want it to come on sooner and stay on longer.
TIA
