Thanks much to all for the feedback!
Is the factory fan a suitable replacement or is there a
better one?
Will also try the thermostat, the coolant system is clean.
I'm getting a rattle inside the catalytic converter, which I
assume means it bad. Should I eliminate the cat in the
process?
thanks ... Dwight
