that sounds more like thermostat is missing.
if thats the case, and youre overheating, you have big problems, or, that fan is a piece of shit.
dump that fan, get either decent quality electrics, like mentioned.
or stock fan and shroud.. (the better option)
Going on my experience with my Crx, which gets hot as well but never overheated, I put in the Spoon Sports thermostat which was a waste of $80. That fan doesnt kick on til 210, that's the problem. When money allows I'll upgrade to a Koyo radiator, do the thermostat & proper overflow bottle this weekend. I'm losing brake fluid like nobody's business, so after I pay for a caliper, we'll see what I've got left for a new rad.
