well do the lil speakerwire test of the fan to see if its even workin, "positive/negative wires to the battery to see if it gets power" an if ur switch is bad just jumper the switch so uf fan comes on with ignition an u should be all good...

if you're running boost and need extra cooling thats fine i was just letting him know of other alternatives than wiring the fan to always run.

My D16Z6 in my '93 Si does that from time to time. Just a slight blip on the gas and it starts goin down usually. When my radiator blew I had to use a few autozone parts to get it runnin, one of which was a thermostat(Honda is 45 min away). I figured it may be that, and i'll probably try to get one tomorrow or next week.
