Default Back feed diode
Hey I am getting back feed from my cooling fan to ignition which is giving me engine run on for a few seconds..The fan was wired direct from previous owner..The temps are a steady 185 - 190.I just want to install a back feed diode in line the fan...Any ideas on where to get one of these from?
thanx

You should have a relay driving your fan but if you want maybe this will work. Need to check the amperage rating.

Check out this fan relay kit:
