Overdosing Techron Cleaner, fan is crazy

Hi guys, I read the Techron Cleaner asks for 1 oz per gallon of fuel so I planed to got in 1 and a half 12 oz bottle of Techron Cleaner.

However, when I was doing this I pour too much. I seemed to add in nearly 2 bottles of Techron Cleaner add top up the tank. So this means I over dose the Techron Cleaner but not more than 1.5. Since even with the 2 full bottle, it is 24 oz, and 1.5 * 19 (tank size) = 28.5oz.

The car runs with everything normal for 30 minutes until I got home and stopped the car. The radiator fan suddenly burst crazy at maximum with crazy sound after I stopped the car with eigine running. After I stopped the eigine, the fan was slower but keeps running for like 10 minutes until it stopped.

Anyone know are these two issues related. How worried should I be.

My original plan was to drive and use 1/4 of the full fuel and then top up the fuel again, which would give me the right dose of Techron Cleaner.
But with the fan thing, I am very worried to start the car.

Sidenote: no eigine light, coolnant level at the bottom just a bit lower than the line.


Any suggestions or comments? Thanks!
