I would think behind sucking air should work a little better, that is why most car has it set up that way from factory. If the fan is in the front, then first it would blocked most of the air and also the part when the motor is will have a "un-cooled" spot all the time.Hi guys..Kinda stupid question I think but just wondering which is better..to have d radiator fan behind Sucking air or in front blowing air?:wavey:
Thanx n rgrds

there's a good reason why ur car's aircond fan is in front of the condenser from the factory, relocating it might not be a good idea,Gr8 info guys thanx..tho some lingo I x quite understand hehehe but I get d point (I think)...anyway reason me starting this discussion coz there are (conflicting??) regards to d position of d fan..some say behind is better some says front..correct me if I'm wrong but there are ones that come front as OE (rite???)..anyway mine is located behind n planning to 'mod' d aircon fan (which is in front) to run together wiz d radiator fan like bro vr2turbo mentioned n has done..I guess there's x side effects then?
Titanrev, the terminal wire can we swap to counter the original rotation right? but yeah, why the hassle. better check before buying.I think the difference is not much being it pulling or pushing. Engine space would be the main concern though is not enough space inside the engine bay you can opt to put in the front. My 206 is having it's fan places infront of the rad but it's a 2 speed electric fan.
Just a note though, if you going to install new rad fan. After you decided the fitting position make sure to test the fan before buying because the direction of the fan blade will determine the direction of the air flow.
Yup, my friend Citroen ZX have both fans in front but 2 speed.....I think the difference is not much being it pulling or pushing.

unless u relocate the condenser to another area or u made some mod to ur car front grill, i think u should just leave it that way
remember, for radiator/condenser to work properly, they need pressure different between front & rear, otherwise air will not move thru the radiator/condenser
Yes we can but if it's a 2 speed fan it might not turn. Single speed DC motor we can swap the terminal.Titanrev, the terminal wire can we swap to counter the original rotation right? but yeah, why the hassle. better check before buying.
