PT Engine Cooling Fan System
Thanks Pete,
But I'm looking for a little more specific information. Like the actual
valve which controls
the hydraulic fan systems low speed... and likewise for the high speed? There is
a Webster
Pressure Relief Valve in this system which has a solenoid? No hydraulic shop
here can find
any information on it, as Webster has been gone awhile. Bluebird parts says
they no
longer stock it and they do not have service kits for it?
