Problem: When rad. fans kick on the car wants to (but does not)stall.....
Info I am aware of:
Constant Volts:13.5
Running AMPS without Fan: 6
Running Amps with Rad. FAN running (Constant load): 16
Running Amps when Rad. Fan starts (initial draw): 36

I am looking for a way to stablize the initial draw so the car doesn't react so poorly to the fan turning on.....
I know we have some electrical engineers on this board, so, I am hoppong someone would be able to guide me in the right direction
I know a Capacitor will not help but I was thinking of putting another battery between the relay and the FAN to stabalize initial draw, but, this seems a little crazy......
I was also thinking that maybe the Alternator wires might have a problem (2 white wires that go from fuze to alternator), but, they seem to be OK...
