It has never done this before...even in the morinings when it is not to hot down here in FLA. Any ideas on why it seems to be coming on all the time....it is almost liked it is tied to the ignition pedal....give it gas and she comes on.
Tim, if you have AC in that CARAT as it should and you have it on then the fan should be running all the time when the AC is on. If the AC is off and the fan is coming on and off all the time the engine is not cooling properly or your always stuck in traffic and not moving. Maybe the Rad's blocked ? Check the flow through the Rad.
