| Modification: | none | |
| General comments: | Suspect the temperature at which the thermoswitch is operating at is too high. I need a thermoswitch with a lower temperature switching point. | |
| Problems: | After reaching normal operating temperature, the car starts jerking below 60km/hr. The fan switches automatically. If I disconnect the thermswitch and the fan run continuously thereby cooling the engine and temperature drops, the engine runs smoothly. I installed a new thermswitch but the problem remains. |
