    Hi got a car radiator fan motor flex a lite interesting my first radiator motor not what I was expecting inside it had a big magnet like a microwave and beneath the magnet was a strange metal looked kinda like a saw blade about the wighth of a saw blade to. It is 2oz according to my scale non magnetic it's shiny like brass but wouldn't it be heavier than 2oz ?.

    Maybe it's anodized aluminum if it's brass colored and light weight.

    I did notice that those fans and parts sell well if in working order.
