Re: Low budget electric fan

You can kind of see the tab on the shroud The fan had 3 tabs on it 2 toward the side 1 on the bottom I cut a 45 degree piece of tubing and bolted thru the shroud and simple L bracket on the bottom Its wired to switch where the tank selector should be

Re: Low budget electric fan

Sure does look like it's supposed to be there, don't it? That's the factory shroud, right?
