So I have done all my research on the topic about a bad fan clutch/over heating at idle.
Truck runs fine at driving speed but temp gauge spikes at idle/stop and go. I got the truck at normal operating temperatures this afternoon and did the newspaper test and the paper did not tear and pretty much stopped the fan. I killed the motor and could spin the fan with no resistance at all.
I think it’s safe to say I need a new clutch fan what do y’all think? Just wanted to get some feedback.
