Subject: Overheating

It's every rodder's nightmare. You're out there on the biggest cruise of the year; chrome and paint gleaming, wheels and tires detailed, lookin' sweet... when your car proceeds to do an "Old Faithful" imitation and boil over right in front of the judges' stand. Centech's incredibly easy to install FC-2P temperature control box makes sure that won't happen. You simply set your engine temperature right from the driver's seat and the FC-2P control unit does the rest no more damaged radiators!

The unit uses a simple three-wire hook up to connect to the back of your electric temperature gauge and two additional wires to the fan motor. A tiny LED lights whenever the fan is "on", and an additional wire is provided to operate the fan via your A/C system or by remote toggle switch. Even if boiling over is not a problem, the FC-2P allows you to regulate your engine temperature to where your engine runs its best.
