Hey, guys.
I recently purchased my first Pug - a 1998 306 1.9 TD Meridian - and it's been running fantastically, all apart from the fans on the radiator not working. I unplugged the two sensors on the top of the thermostat in the hope that the engine would then presume a worst-case scenario & put the fans on all the time - but no joy there. So, I have come to the conclusion that the fans need changing.
I have found some fans at a scrap yard on a petrol model - a phase 3, I believe. They look to be the same size, and I was wondering if these fans would bolt-on to my car, or would I need to get diesel fans specifically? Also, am I correct in presuming that the fans are dead?
Many thanks
Oli
