Effect of driving with one cooling fan

Hi,

As long as you are driving with some speed, for example, highway speed, you should be okay. If you are stuck in traffic where there is no air flow from driving, it may overheat. However, as long as one is working, it shouldn't. One last thought. I'm not sure where you are located so I'm not sure of the temperature there. If it is extremely hot, just keep an eye on the temperature gauge.

Let me know if that helps.

Hello, I'm Danny.

Well, there are a few variables. Depends on if the van is loaded with cargo and passengers,will you be having the air conditioning on. Will you be towing anything,and mostly what is the outside ambient air temperature? Lastly, how many km's for travel?
Hope this helps and thanks for using 2CarPros.

thank you Danny,responding to your questions; No, the van will not be loaded with cargo. Yes,i will be driving with my family of 5 with me.No,we wont be needing the AC for the journey,and we will be driving between 5:30 am and 8:00 am without traffic and the temperature will still be a lot cooler.So,please can i driving with only the big fan on for 2 and half hours on a very free road?Thank you.

30 degrees C.

That degree heat would be pushing it to the limit.. Be sure to make sure you have the radiator and overflow bottle filled to the required level.Be sure to monitor the engine temperature gauge on the dash board.Be sure to get this problem fixed when you return.We can help you with that.Happy travels.Hope this helps and thanks again for using 2CarPros.
