So after no responce, I moved on and stumbled across Joe Goodnough who wrote the programs for VMP. He is now on his own and tuned my 03 which I purchased new. After 20 years of putting up with a tip in buck, at any rpm, Joe identified the problem with just a picture of my underhood.The first...
Ordered my Cobra in July of 02. Received the car first week of October. In 2012, I put a new Motorcraft battery in thats still in in today. The first battery never let me down, I just replaced it due to its age. I still have the original.

Same issue, same outcome. I checked the fan amp draw with a 60A jumper before condemning it. Fan removal is simple. Now just have to find one tomorrow. I'm surprised, only 15k miles.
As a side note, Auto Zone is awfully proud of those 50A fuses @ $5 each.........
