In some cars it happens when the engine gets really hot.

But does it start when you turn on ignition?

1. You will change fans moe often.
2. It will drain your battery leading to shorter battery life span leading to frequent battery changes
3. It will strain your alternator too requiring frequent alternator replacements
4. Your engine will run cooler assuming your thermostat has been removed.
5. This will lead to increased fuel consumption
6. Increase in engine wear as excess fuel dumped in by the ecu leads to additional wear on your cylinder walls due to reduced lubrication
7. Increase in sludge formation as a result of 4,5 and 6 above
8. Blue smoke from your exhaust when 4,5,6 and 7 eventually take hold.
8. You will then change or have to overhaul the engine.

It's a slow and painful death for your engine caused by running your fan direct and removing the thermostat.

If the thermostat is still there, you will probably only have to live with 1,2 and 3. Probably in quote.

Stupid mechanics and electricians are advising that I should connect my fan direct. Incompetence everywhere. Thanks for the info. I tell them my car must remain in factory state. Oyibo put thermostat and you yourself a retardedd fvcktard wants to remove it because of what?
