So you want it to blow instead of suck? Most electrics have fans that are reversable. So just reverse the fan and it will blow.

If I remember correctly the water pump is driven off the back of a serpentine belt and actually runs the opposite direction to a conventional pump.

Someone please correct me if I'm wrong.
