engine cooling fan?
At what temperature does the fan turn on? What causes it to turn on?
I've seen oil temps as high as 241 degrees and coolant temps above 220 degrees when I've turned the car off and have never heard the fan come on.

[*] don't try running the engine on a race track at 230 dF water and 285dF oil temps for very long.
