Beware of eBay Cooling Fans
I know, I know, beware of ANYTHING eBay, but I just thought I would share what is going on.
About a year ago, one of the blades on my factory fan cracked so I had to purchase a new one. And of course, Ford wanted a ton for an OEM replacement. So, on the advise of a few friends, I decided to check eBay for some reproduction fans. I searched around and found a company (can't even remember the name) that had great rep and a great price. It was like a third less than what Ford wanted. Anyhow, a year later, I'm driving down the road and all of a sudden steam just starts billowing out of the heat extractors and front end. Long story short, turns out that the plug for the temp sensor is cheap crap, it had broken loose, allowing the sensor itself to become loose and move and rubbed a small gash in my actual radiator. Luckily, a good friend of mine repairs radiators for a living and fixed it in a few minutes at no charge, but I now need a new temp sensor, plus the time it took to get this all figured out, it probably would have evened out by just getting the better Ford factory product. So yeah, be carefull on those eBay fans.
