Silvertop low temp stat/ fan switch
 
Is there a low temperature thermostat & fan switch available for a silvertop zetec?

Can you send me a picture of the fan switch? and the diameter of the thermostat?

Can do if needs be... ;-)

It’s a job I want to look into over winter
Fan kicks in and out just over half way which is in the normal area... and with the management I assume it can be adjusted

The temp always goes higher while warming up... as if the thermostat is opening up later than wanted
Once the fan first kicks in higher up the temp range it’ll kick in in the normal position all day long

Yeah I know what you mean...I may have a solution but need to know whats on there at the moment...found a great solution for the CVH fan switch to!

Looking on Eurocarparts just putting the Reg of the Mondeo I had the engine out of it could be one that opens at 92degs or 88 degs so there’s room for improvement...
I’m pretty sure I used a cvh temp gauge switch... but I’ll try check tomorrow if possible :king:

That’s a 82 deg

Will pull mine out to check towards weekend but we think this should fit ;-)
Unless there’s anything available lower?

Fan switch not needed, whatever is in was just calibrated and controlled by the engine management :king:

This one could be an option, it's been a while since i nailed my silvertop zetec turbo together but i'm sure i've got this one fitted in mine, i had to take a bit off the diameter with a file as it was a very tight fit in my early zetec alloy thermostat housing, but you might be able to make it work. all the dimensions are in the listing

There’s always something to do on them :cry:
