le sigh

The engine is working great until my efan runs with the manual switch turned on for an extended period of time. I was out driving today in stop and go traffic. There is still something not quite right with my thermoswitch in that IIRC the Starion switch is a 195 on switch. It is not triggering my efan until 210ish. Either that or my Prosport temp gauge is not accurate.

So I got nervous that I was at a stop light and my temps were rising above 200 and I flipped my manual switch on. Things were fine for a couple of minutes and then the engine starts sputtering, it's wanting to stall out and I barely get it into a parking lot where it does stall out.

I don't find any burned or blown fuses, all the wiring looks fine. After it sat for 5-10 min I start the engine up and everything is fine. I move it to a better parking space. The thermoswitch has the fan blowing on its own.

I never had this kind of problem before melting wiring and replacing the main relay. I'm not sure where to check next. The alternator?
