I had a nice smoke show today. Wife and I drove to my work to get tools to change the TB on my 94 golf. I left the car running with the AC on ( wife and child were in the car) while I went in to get the tools. When I got back in the car about 10 minutes later, there was a funny smell like burning wires. My wife said she smelt that a few minutes ago and turned the AC off. I popped the hood and looked down at the cooling fan and there's smoke coming up from the back of the motor. I jumped back into the car, looked at my scangauge, Temp says 97C (I've never seen it that high). Started driving right away engine cooled off, back to 88 - 91C.
So, I ordered a new fan, 85 bucks. Mine is dead, the bearings seized.
I'm wondering why my fuse didn't go? I'm hoping that my wiring isn't cooked. Any of you come across this before? (probably)
