![]() | Kenlowe Primary Fan Kit Ref: 14. HP. B/S. 12V |
| It takes around 8.5% of the engine power output to drive a belt driven fan that is unnecessary for an average 96% of the time. Removal of the fixed or viscous fan means around 8.5% less fuel is needed for the same performance or around 8.5% extra power is available to improve performance. For example the energy used to drive the belt-driven fan on motorways or climbing in low gear at high revs is significant as the energy absorbed by the fan goes up by the cube of the speed. The belt-driven fan on almost all cars consumes around 8.5% of the total energy developed by the engine. On large 4x4 off-road vehicles that can be a lot of b.h.p. and all because the vehicle manufacturer had to assume the owner may cross the Sahara towing 2 tons morning, noon and night! Removal of the beltdriven fixed or viscous fan releases this power for safer overtaking, easier climbing and a more flexible and free revving engine. This Kenlowe fan kit is suited to Land Rover 90 and 110 models with 2.25cc/2.5cc Petrol and Diesel N/A engines 1983 to 1990. Land Rover 90 and 110 T/Diesel (no intercooler) 1986 to 1990 Pre-Defender.
