How many of you Mondial guys only have one fan?

My 89 has 2.

 

My '87 3.2 has two fans.

 

My 85 QV has ONE fan. I think the 3.2 Mondials have 2 fans.

Also what is average of temperature gauge on engine and cooling system? My car runs right at 195 on highway. In traffic on hot days in TX, it will be a little past 195. The engine oil temperature will hit about 210 at constant speeds.

 

The average water temperature is 70 degrees Celsius (158 degrees Fahrenheit), the average oil temperature is 80 degrees Celsius (176 degrees Fahrenheit). This is after a few hours of driving, the ambient temperature was 21 degrees Celsius (70 degrees Fahrenheit). Don't look at the oil pressure (the pressure sender seems to be faulty).

My 1981 M8 has only one radiator fan, and it runs cool, if anything, at laeast according to the gauge.

 

2 Fans

 

Hi Bridman, Do you have a part number for the fan you bought?

tnx

 

My 84 QV has two fans.

Though the second one on the passenger side appears to be "added" as the bracket that holds it to the radiator appears to be "glued" on it and it is loose.

I never had a cooling problem, even in hot California weather in stop and go traffic. The needle does go beyond the middle range in extreme conditions, but never even close to hot.

Both fans start and stop at the same time.

 

I recently bought a used fan for the car which already has the posts/studs for mounting two fans. As said previously - car is already wired for two fans.

Car tended to run hot because of fusebox delamination which allowed only partial single fan operation. Silly me, I thought it was the thermostat...

"When you think it's butter - but it's not" - it's the G. D'd. delaminated FUSEBOX.

308 vs Mondial Radiator Fan Motor, note the different size, rotational direction, fan blade interface, electric connections:

Mondial Radiator Fan Motor Replacement Cross Reference, should you not be able to source an original motor... (only the electric connector needs to be adapted, the rest is plug'n'drive):

By the way, the above replacement motor also LOOKS exactly the same as the original motor:

Some more images - does anyone have the same assembly?

Are the motors the same across the Mondials? (8,QV, 3.2, T)

 

The radiator fan motor part# 117546 is used on the Testarossa, 328, 512BBi, 288, 208 turbos and ALL Mondial versions (incl. as a condenser fan motor on the 8).
