Hey,

For those of you that have done the taurus electric fan conversion, I have a question. Is the fan from a 1992 Lincoln Continental the same one? It looks identical to the taurus 3.8l fans everyone has used, but I wanted to check with some of you in the know before I buy it!

thanks for any help.

Chris

 

Does it have three wires?

 

I believe it did have three wires on it, so it should be the 2-speed one then I guess?

I just wanted to get any opinions on it i.e. is the airflow the same etc. as the taurus model. I was not sure where else to check on it except here (where I get about 99% of my toyota info!).

Chances are it's prob. the same one I imagine that they sourced out for the tauruses.

Thanks,
Chris

 

I would think so too!

 

I don't know for sure, but I'd bet it's the same. Try looking up part numbers on the internet and see if they're the same.

 

That is a great idea. Any sites you would suggest to look them up? I searched Google a couple times, but kept coming to the "submit a part request and we'll get back to you" BS on most sites.

thanks.

 

Not sure if they are the same or not. Might be the same 2 speed motor, but could have a different shape fan shroud??

 

Does that Lincoln have a 3.8L V6? They are the same exact fan, as I got my spare fan from a Lincoln MK VII with a 3.8~ Get it, you wont regret it.

 

Thanks for all the info. I went ahead and got it for 26.00. It is the 3-wire model for sure and is the same physical layout/shroud as the pictures everyone has posted for the taurus 3.8l fan.

Now I have to figure out what to buy to get it put in and working.

Thanks everyone.
Chris

 

Here is my Taurus Fan writeup from when I installed mine.

It just hit me when Rome said Lincoln 3.8 V6...yes it's the same fan!...duh, I knew that..:pat:

haha, it didn't register in my mind that "lincoln continental" is the lincoln 3.8L V6...

 

All,

Thanks for the info and the help. The writeup you provided is awesome!
