FLD120 low coolant temperature

Me is idling 800 rpm on S60 all the time, no matter the subzero, just cover the grill. It is just a sweet spot for smoothest sleep.

I do run additives to keep injectors clean though.

 

Good luck with the part #s. I had no luck myself. I learned there’s a lot of #s, that are all the same fan. Friend of mine just got one from Freightliner for his 99. $900 or $1100? I even called Horton, they said I had a rare fan, and would need to have one built, 7-8 weeks. Lol. After researching, I found the same fan, at least 10 different part #s. I bought one once from Truckpro. The fan ended up about an inch further from radiator than original. Otherwise it was the same. I got my current fan from a Junk yard. About 7 yrs ago. It was rebuilt, but sat on the shelf for years. I put a mini kit in it after about a year. I rebuilt it a couple yrs ago, with the Kitmasters brand kit. About $575. Freightliner had the new Horton quick kits, but needed to be ordered. They were cheaper, and probably better. Check them out. Horton Quick Kit. Clutch comes assembled, makes it much easier to rebuild. Step by step instructions makes it fairly easy to rebuild.

 

Hopefully the new engine will have a good front cover, and you won’t keep breaking bolts. If the brackets wore down, best to get a new one. Less than $275.

 

Nows the time to get rid of the old York a/c compressor if you have that kind. This pad mount bracket with Sanden compressor fairs better. Still breaks bolts though, if it ever gets loose, and wallows out the holes. The 2002 upgrade is best. I’ve never seen one. Would also need the proper front? or rear? cover. Note the 4 extra bolts. These were on eBay. I had to get the $238 one.

 

Make sure that you keep the coolant completely filled.

If your coolant level is low you will not get heat.
