Just installed some fans, now it runs hotter?
 
I finally installed some LS1 fans, and now the engine is running 10 to 15 degrees warmer, any one have any ideas on why? That is with both fans on by they way. Thanks in advance, Kent.

Well are the fans pulling or pushing, if they are pushing then your truck will run warmer. If they are pulling then it should run cooler. So check and see if it is pulling or pushing...

I thought you wern't answering anymore of these. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" /> Yea, do what he said. You may just need to reverse the power and ground on the fans.
