Yep, thats rite. I started up the car and heard a very strange scraping sound. I thought something was rubbing against the fan blades. Well I let it run for a few seconds, then all of a sudden heard a loud pitch sound and saw the fan come to a slow stop!!! while engine was running.
I had to pick up my gf, so I thought I'd chance it, well the car actually ran cooler than it usually does, probably because it wasn't drawing hot air from my poor radiator. I have yet to look at the fan, I know I have to replace the radiator.
What do you this has caused the fan to stop like this. Also, when this happened there was a strange odour that seemed to come from the fan stopping. What could this mean?
