ideas?

[curtisbyrne]

i took apart a old compyter yesterday,i got some wire and two good electric fans,any ideas on what i can use the fans for?

A computer.

They are specifically engineered for a purpose. You could experiment and learn a little about: thermodynamics, electrodynamics, fluid dynamics, and electrical science.

Shouldn't you have put this thread in a different forum?

I meant what can I use it for on an Argo lol,like cooling purposes?

I used 2 at the muffler side of the exhaust box that the tail pipe runs through on my argo bigfoot. they blow warm air out of the engine compartment. Holding up well so far and do help draw hot air from around the muffler out.

Any more ideas? Also send a pic of that,Trevor

Ah, then you are in the right place.

I've never run into a cooling problem except when I am too warm, so cooling me somehow would be nice.
I've had a few occasions where I wish I could have warm air blown on my windshield to defrost it, but that is a warming purpose.

I was thinking of putting the two in the firewall

I will takes pics and post soon. I need to install a winch hoop I made and that requires removing the muffler. I noticed before adding the fans the hood was hot to the touch and after when running the hood is warm to the touch. They are on a separate switch same idea as the brake fan to limit draw while idling for any length of time. the nice thing about the fans are they're cheap to replace and I think only draw maybe half an amp.

An these fans are 4-5 inches in diameter so,but they spool up alot
