Anyone using something like one of these in the winter?
The fan really doesn't need to be engaged when the temp is 13° outside. I'm just asking to see if anyone else here is using something similar.
Although, instead of buying one of those cover's, I'd probably just use a piece of cardboard with a small hole cut in the center to allow "some" airflow.
My thermostat seems to be working fine, but I'd like to see if I can get the engine to warm up a bit faster. I'm not interested in wiring an electric fan setup or block heater. Just looking for a simple, effective, and easily removable solution. If it sounds like a bad idea, then I'll nix-it altogether and be happy with what I have. It's early, so I'm bored and brainstorming.
I did a quick search here, but the results only took me back until November of 2012...and nothing was found. I searched for "Radiator Cover".
