Maybe a dremel tool and trim a lil bit off the corner of the fan?.... depends on how hard it's rubbing .... i would think a lil trim is always good

Just remove it and you'll be fine. I don't run that fan and when I drive around the temp gauge doesn't move. You chould unplug the fan to test it for a day and keep an eye on the temp.
