I suspect mine is ready for replacement again. I know that, with the engine at operating temperature, you shut-off the engine and move the fan by hand and you're supposed to feel some resistance. My problem is nobody has ever defined for me what that means . . . . . . are we talking tough-to turn, or only slightly-less-free-turning? Even when this fan clutchwas new (this is on my 88), I cannot say I noticed a whole lot of resistance. At the present time, I feel no difference (cold vs hot) at all. I'm pretty certain I'll just go ahead and change it . . . . but, maybe you guys can help me better understand what to check for. TIA Don (BTW, I'm really not interested in changing to an electric fan.)
