It might run hotter then normal, and when you slow down it might start to over heat... The hotter it runs the more top ends you will go through....

I would just leave it on it don't weigh that much...

There are guys who do it. You need to look into some of the radiator addatives that help cool it down like Water Wetter or something. Do your homework and be careful

For no more than the fan weighs, and the chances you'll take if you remove it, just diet and lose 3 pounds.
