engine noise
If there is a fan overide switch that would be news to me. Remember
this old girl was a gasser and converted to 3208 NA. Maybe it
doesn't have a fan clutch? I'll have to check into this. The bus
never seems to run hot and so I don't know if the fan has ever come
on, or it may cycle and I don't hear it? Like I said,learning all
the time.
