Product Description

3

The cooling fan clutch is a cooling system component that controls the operation of the engine cooling fan. When the engine overheats, the radiator needs the help of the cooling fan to blow air into the device. After the engine reaches the proper operating temperature, the fan clutch will be mechanically disengaged, thus saving some power for your vehicle.

How to Judge Whether the Fan Clutch Fails

  • Engine overheating: When the fan clutch fails to engage or work properly, as a result, the engine may fail to operate at an acceptable temperature range.
  • Excessively loud cooling fans: If the fan clutch gets stuck in the engaged position, this may result in an excessively loud engine from the fan blowing at full speed.
  • Pay attention to changes in air temperature: Switch on the A/C and turn it down to the coldest setting. If it fails to cool down after several minutes, or seems to be emitting unusually warm air, there could be a problem.
  • Check the appearance of the fan clutch: Examine the unit’s general condition, you’ll be able to tell right away if something is out of place or there’s any major structural damage.
  • Spot-check for oil leaks: Run your finger along the edges of the bearing seal on the backside of the fan clutch. If it comes away with a heavy coating of oil, the culprit is either a crack or a faulty seal.

How to Replace a Bad Fan Clutch

1

Removing the Fan

Mechanically driven fans with four bolts

Loosen the bolts in the fan cover to remove the fan. After that, disconnect the fan shroud and remove the shroud. Pull out the nut that secures the fan to the pump pulley, hold the fan and pull it forward with a slight rocking motion until the fan is loose and finally comes out.

Cooling fan with large nut

Disconnect the fan sealed by the large nut. Insert it around the bolt on the pulley. Use a large wrench to turn counterclockwise to loosen the nut.

2

Disconnecting the Clutch From the Fan

Set aside the detached fan. Make sure that the shaft is up. Use the suitable socket and ratchet to remove the bolts that fasten the clutch to the fan.

3

Installing the New Fan Clutch

Align the new fan clutch in the position and secure it to the fan by tightening the bolts. After that, reassemble the fan and shroud.

The replacing steps are only for reference, and we recommend you to ask the technician to do the installation.

I ordered this part thinking it would work with a ‘91 Ford XLT based on their description. My mechanic says it does not. Please be aware.
