Okay Brian, I've been looking around and there is supposed to be a fan relay close to the fuse box under the dash. Other things to check would be the temp sending unit on the lower intake located between injector's 2 & 3. I hope this helps...I just hate electrical stuff - so I would go get an aftermarket relay setup.

Aftermarket. I junked my stock stuff a while back. Even had problems on the 88 TC that I drove for a while.

New stuff works!!

I think Hayden makes one, and I've seen the Painless kits on Summit that were pretty reasonable.
