I just got my new fan clutch and it is stamped "Reverse Rotation". Is that right and what does it mean?
Thanks,
Thanks,

There are several threads on the subject of "reverse rotation" of both fan and water pump in the XJ. The key thing is - which way does the fanbelt/serp belt turn the pulleys concerned?tgregg said:OK, thanks, any reason why? I mean does a 4.0 turn in a reverse direction or the accessories turn backwards or what?
I just put a new water pump on and it wasn't marked "reverse" but it seems to work OK.
This doesn't matter I'm just curious. Is their some 4.0 stuff that isn't reverse?
I mean it seems to me to have a "reverse" there should be a "regular" if you get my drift.
In 50 years of working on engines I've just not seen this before.
