Hi guys
I am a little confused and would love someone to clarify for me, does the fan pull air into the engine then it gets pushed out the vents or does it blow air through the rad and out through the bottom, I have seen both answers online

Cheers

Hi Andy
The air comes in through the side vents (louvres) and is blown forwards through the radiator and then exits underneath.

You need to make sure you have the under trays in place otherwise the hot air will keep on recirculating - especially when stuck in traffic.

If you sucked air in from under the van the radiator would very quickly get clogged up with road dirt etc.

I agree with Gary.

Air is blown by the fan through the radiator and comes out underneath.

(Unless someone has fitted a 600fan and this won't help).

My Lombardi had been in an Italian museum for 15 years with the wrong fan, wrong engine bearings, orange fuel and very old brake fluid. Good job I check it over before trying to start it.
