History: On my first drive this summer after replacing my transmission I was having an overheat condition with the truck. On the following weekend while towing a camper it was real severe in the 230* range. After returning I was able to confirm that my Blue hubbed fan clutch was to blame.
This outlines how I adjusted the timing on my clutch.
warning:none of the parts within the clutch are serviceable by TOYOTA. Be gentle with that O-Ring. If it appears to have stretched and there is a bubble when placed in the groove, simply start from the side opposite the bubble and work it back into place compressing it as you go.
Needed tools:
12mm box wrench to remove the fan/clutch assembly
10mm socket/ratchet for removing fan from clutch
#3 Philips screw driver
#2 Philips screw driver
Supplies:
2 tubes of Toyota 6000 cst oil P# 08816-06001
Attached are pics of the blue hub clutch, the thermometer and oil I used.
