alrite so heres the problem, my a/c compatible set up juuuuust fits with a slim fan, but the dumptube hits the slim fan, over 3 months the pipe melted the fan and i'm gunna have to buy a new one.

i was just going to shorten the dumptube and have it re welded, but then there are clearence issus because it goes down, then pionts toward the rear of my car.

so listen to my new idea and let me know if it would work or harm anything. I was thikning of cutting the dumptube, and replacing most of it with that exhaust fixing hose that they sell at autozone... u know like the flexible stuff, and just route it wherever, just so i can clear my slim fan. what do u guys think? let me know if i can do something else.

Why dont you just put the fan on the front of the condensor? Is there no room?

pjr710

there probably is room .... i can do that???

i dont really even fully understand the function of the fan to be honest

Why dont you try wrapping it with exhaust wrap. Im sure this will solve your problem.

92civiceg9gsr

Yeah you can put the fan on the front. Just switch the two wires to it and make sure its pushing air through the condensor. But you need the fan to keep the ac blowing cold when you stop.

I put a pusher fan in front on mine. That worked fine and gave me plenty of room.

yes mount the fan on the other side and reverse the polarity of the wires.

The fans objective is to run air through the fins of the radiator to cool it.

pjr710

yea if the fan isnt there .. there is enough room, and this fan is trashed already so i need a new one. whered u get the pusher fan?

Running925

bought my slim fan at the local autoparts store

pjr710

so i want the fan on the front of the compressor ... and i want it blowing air toward the engine or away?

i say cut it and have it 90 out to the side and go straight down next to the downpipe.

U would want it blowing towards the engine (pusher).
