Well gang, I believe my issue with overheating and spotty to virtually
non-existent fan operation has finally been resolved. The WOTL (Wisdom of
the List) was pretty well divided between a bad radiator cap and a faulty
fan motor thermo switch. Turns out it was neither. It was a loose ground
connection on the fan motor frame which provides ground to the radiator and
thus the fan motor thermo switch. I think I explained that right, but if
not, don't tell anyone I said it! Anyways, my sincere thanks to each and
every one of you who posted and/or emailed me regarding this issue. I've
learned a lot from this experience! I may not be smart when it comes to the
inner workings of our PC's, but thank goodness I AM smart enough to be a
part of such a wonderful group of friendly and caring people. The IPCRC is
the Best!
