Thermostat/fan probs? - update

[John Kilpatrick <kilpatri@sgi.com>]

It's currently 3:15am.  I was lying in bed reading when I heard that fan 
go off again.  I tried to get out there and pop the hood in time, but the
fan only ran for 2 mintues at the most.  

When I did get the hood up, I noticed that that metal of the ingine (those 
tube looking things towrds the front of the car "below" the VR6) was a
little warm - it would be a good temp for running in the daytime, but
considering that I had gotten home about 5 hours ago, and it was the
middle of the night, it felt a bit warmed than it should be.

Could this be some sort of cold weather fuction or something?  Or should I 
take it in?  And if so, what do I tell them to look for?  I just got past
my warrenty (of course - that's when this happens) and am now on the
Wester General extended warrenty that I bought.

Thanks,
John
