why dont you put your fan on a switch. then when your going through water it would splash the water into your engine bay....i think some one on here had it...maybe urbanzook

i have a kenlowe fan
its pretty good!

it comes with all the kit you need to fit it
had a thermostat that fits in the top hose of your radiator, and uses a silicone seal. quite clever really.

I fitted a switch inside the cab so i could switch the fan off in deep water (even though i forget every time)
used a relay to hook the switch up, which lights up when the fan is off to remind me to turn it on :)

if you want some pics just ask
