all good ideas that i will look into either 2day or 2morrow . i was just outside running a switch to my fans...i previously had a 160 degree fan bypass so the fans turned on and stayed on all teh time if the temp was 160 or higher......when they took the AC out something must have been triggered by that and my fan bypass does not work...so i found out which wires control my fans and ran a switch myself for them......since i got the car back, she was running real hot since my original bypass wasnt working and i was relying on my stock fan set up, but my stock set up turns the fans on at near red line which i didnt want.....point is.....the fans were permanently on because we temporarily ran the wires directly to a ground which functions them, the problem with that, is that not only was my starter getting heat soaked....but also, as soon as i turned the ignition on both fans would run as well as my amplifier.....which cant help the starting problem at all........so i just now ran the switch for my fans so i can turn them on when i want, and for the time being i have just dicsonnected my amplifier.......hopefully this will at least not take anymore power away from my starter and maybe the heat soak problem will at least hold off now......i can only imagine how bad it must have been these past 2 weeks for my starter since my crank power was being drained by the 2 fans, amplifier, as well as whatever juice was needed to turn the starter......
