Only if the temp gauge gets over half way (~220*F+).

Only if it's a hot summer day and you're stuck in LA stop and go traffic then turn your engine off you "might" vapor lock and not be able to restart the car until it cools down. Otherwise it's not terribly effective.

If you manage to get vapor lock with an EFI motor, I'd be amazed.

I've done it. Bag of ice on the fuel rail for about 2 minutes. Back in business.

Heheh, I wave a magazine over it for a minute myself :P

Something wrong with kick-on for my aux fan. I just rigged up a small black momentary switch under my dash to ground from the temp. sending line, works every time if I can ever remember to use it.

Works great but the FSM wiring diagrams are wrong for both Z31 and 280zx.
