100 series 4.2 - is the radiator fan electric or viscous?

[Lorin]

I just saw a picture of what I think was a 100 series radiator and fan arrangement, and the fan was electric rather than viscous like the 80 uses. I wondered whether anyone with a 100 series could confirm this for me?

I am sure my viscous unit is beyond repair as I've replaced the fluid twice and have still never hear the "roar" that is rumoured to indicate it engaging.... I could just get another one but I also need to replace my fan shroud. Now, if the 100 series one is an electric unit (built into the shroud), I'm wondering whether it could be adapted to fit my radiator....

HDJ100 is viscous, as the HZJ

Maybe the later ones are electric....? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/271011216695? ... 1423.l2648

There's a bell ringing - don't know if it's the right bell...
Was there somethng about dual A/C (rear) and dual fan?

Edit:
Yes. On some Dual A/C models, there is an electric condenser fan i addition.

I know this is a little off-thread but what oil do you use for the viscous fan? Mine doesn't roar either but it may just need oil.
