One of the main concerns with driving in water is the rad fan. Don't stop when the waterline is above the bottom of the fan or it could rip your rad to shreads.

My viscous fan is locked solid with three bolts, acts as a propeller when wading through deep water!Originally posted by Antshiel View PostOne of the main concerns with driving in water is the rad fan. Don't stop when the waterline is above the bottom of the fan or it could rip your rad to shreads.

Originally posted by madcampbell View PostOK are you saying that because the truck is moving forward the water rushes against the blades and then turns them with the water presure or
because the fan never stops ...but I don't think thats likley..sorry being thick
Two years ago, I dismantled my viscous fan, threw some parts in the bin and then drilled three holes and bolted it solid.
The result is a fan that is constantly turning with the engine.
