Anyone know how effective this auxillary fan is? The switch on our 86' C30 is broken - no tab left on the switch to hook anything to. Cannot find a replacement switch that does not cost an arm and a leg (~$69).

Wondering if it helps at all, especially under load at freeway speeds. I wouldn't think so but the front of the condenser/radiator is so blocked with stuff including this fan and engine oil cooler, maybe the vehicle needs all the help it can get?

(Did anyone notice cooler running temps after fixing their broken aux fan setup?)
