    Default Engine Fan Problem - Crafter – 12-04-2010,12:22 AM
    Hi All

    I have a 57 plate Crafter Shiftmatic, when I start the engine from cold the engine fan kicks in, on acceleration the speed of the fan increases making the thing sound like a jet engine taking off, also when it changes gear the fan also changes speed...as if the speed of the fan matches the revs on the engine.....very weird!!

    Any ideas please help

    Regards

    Mort

    If the engine is revved hard, say at standstill, the fan can catch and spin-up, but genreally it shouldn`t be noisy.
