  3. It looks like an axilary fan to me. the type in tubes of a bug to help send forward the "heat" . It does not look like a fan for the hot air on a Bus. Ours is a '73 and the heat fan has two outlets pointing in opposite directions. and the outlets are round not square.
     
  4. Works fine, nice and quiet, i have an Eber BN4 fitted, not part of that unless its an auxiliary? the inlet is round outlet square
     
  5. Hadn't thought of looking for Eberspacher fans so cheers:) , found it now, its from a BA6

    Under my van, unplugged due to brokenness . Wanna sell it :)
     
  9. Yeah it's an eber fan, my bus came with the fan but not the eber :(
     
  10. Keith's looks nice and shiny, mine is covered in 30 years of dirt. Anyone know how I can test mine to see if it works?
     
  11. The amount of support davidoft has given me of late if i had the money id buy it for him

    How much do you want for it dude or is there anything you want to swap for it?

    If it has 2 terminals on it put a battery to it, if it goes round it works leave it running a few minutes to see if it smokes or stops as the bearing fails and seizes to the shaft though it will turn for a bit before overheating
     
  13. Cheers Dave does it matter which terminal I put the live on?
    Sorry to jack your thread Keith ;)
