Re: hlp cooling problems

FRIMX;
I don't think you'll have a problem finding a replacement fan at an auto parts store. I looked on line at Express Auto Parts, and they list several replacments, ranging from $75-$165. The cheapest way to go would be to pick one up at a bone yard out of another Talon.

Don't really understand the "hot spots" on your block. The fan only sucks air through the radiator to aid in heat transfer, so the car will simply overheat if it isn't running. Chances are you can get away with taking short trips, or cruising at steady speeds. The fan typicaly only comes on in stop and go or "around town" type of driving.
