Sounds like it is working as intended. Will run more often when using the AC.

On many cars the fan runs all the time when the AC or the defroster is on.

You threw parts at a car that was working too well? I’m struggling to find a way to spin this in your favor. Could it be that the weather is hotter than it was when it was running less, and not that you just didn’t notice until recently how often it runs?

I’ve noticed the cooling fan on my fuel-injected Honda Shadow runs more than the one I had that had a CV carburetor, but the carb version had a knob that allowed me to control the idle speed, and I kept it pretty low.
