[QUOTE="Catmonkey, post: 15718026, member: 124025"] It's more likely to overheat because there is no air going through the fins of the radiator when the car isn't moving. The fan's electric. If you're driving there is some air flow through the fins, so there is a chance it will cool down, but not like the air flow the fan is capable of pulling. Your a/c would exhibit similar issues. If there is no air going through the condenser coil, output is going to suck. I lost both fans in my F-150 a few years back and while it didn't overheat it was the hot air coming out of the a/c vents that prompted me to look at what was going on. Granted these were aftermarket fans, but I had to replace the controller. [/QUOTE]
