    I mean... if you have the sellers address you COULD try small claims, just have it documented that the part was garbage and you want money back. But I'm not giving legal advice here...just personal expierience.

    Always inspect right away. Ebay is buyer oriented and you could have gotten money back. I have been scammed several times that way when I sold things that were actually exactly as described...so there are buyers that do this too. Anyway, you should report it to ebay.

    Robertshaw part number 335-195 thermostat?

    Had the same problem when I looked for a thermostat, I just measured the old one and then looked what fit.

    195 better than 180 in my Vehicle?

    So I had a runaway temp issue when I installed the AC. Thats why I have the cnc impellered flowkooler pump as well as now some high power mishimoto fans and a perfect fitting shroud. My theory was, if the coolant circulates til 195 in the engine and then slowly lets coolant from the radiator...

    195 better than 180 in my Vehicle?

    Well... Im only 37 and have triggered traumatic arthritis in my back and torn a disk from a slip and fall due to someones negligence, my doctor misdiagnosed and now its chronic. No lawyer wants to take me so..... and its correct, there is no cure, only pain management. I already had tons of...

    195 better than 180 in my Vehicle?

    Hey all, I am trying to sort out some little things on my car before I can list it for sale :(. Cant enjoy it as much because of a back injury, it really really sucks. However, I am trying to figure something out with my cooling before. I have replaced my one 16" Spal with a decent shroud and...

    Electric fan recommendations?

    So I do have about 195° on the tstat housing when I see 195 on the gauge. On a normal 75° day I will have that 195 input in the rad and a 160° output when the fans are running. Thats not the case when ambient temps rise into the 90s. Then the difference becomes more marginal like 200in and...

    Electric fan recommendations?

    The Spals are rated under restriction. They pull their rated 2200cfm or whatever through the radiator. I would have expected the FFD to be rated freeflow at 3600cfm and fall in the 2800cfm category with restrictions but nooooo. They said they rate their fans on the bench at 14.8volts freeflow...

    Electric fan recommendations?

    So I've been waiting a bit to post about this. I have been in contact with FFD and also essentially told them their product does not meet the specs they claimed and I would like to send the fan back and get a refund. As a reply I got a rude email telling me that they benchtest their fans with...

    Electric fan recommendations?

    Here is the Spal. Both equal scenarios, Idle with AC on and Fan mounted to the shroud. Windspeed infront of the radiator was around 10 to 12mph I am waiting to hear back from FFD and see if they will make it right.

    Electric fan recommendations?

    Got her buttoned up. Thermostat housing has a minor leak still but temp creeps up with ac on still...just a lot slower. If I set my fan on temp to 185° and off at 181° it will stay in that range but only with AC off. Thermostat is a high flow Robertshaw 180° . Ac on and Fan on, It goes up and...

    Electric fan recommendations?

    Wow that Bolt is like fused to the housing. I think what I have to do is put the pump on, use the hole as a guide and drill all the way through with a 3/8 drill. Then secure with a longer bolt and nut. There is no saving those threads but I really dont want to take off the timing cover or render...

    Electric fan recommendations?

    Duh I thought the 59A was the current draw rating!? Anyway i think that is the fan I have. Its very strong and blows stronger than the ffd for sure! I'm thinking doing two spal 10" fans on my condenser as pushers that only activate with the AC button and keep either the spal or the ffd as a puller.
