All I seemed to find was OBD2 or 98+ somehow... Figured it was the same idea.

Test it tomorrow! Simple ground wire...

Renix issue slightly modified..... My 90 has a 93 cooling system in it but the elec fan works fine with the chrysler sensors. Recently the fan kicks on when it wants to. If I get out and give the fender a bump the fan will come on. I know that the fan relay is there and I have replaced it with a new relay but w/o change.
Anyone have any ideas?

If the bell housing is removable, could i take the one off an automatic and fit it in that way. or should i best keep looking for one off the strait six ?
