Hey everyone,
So, my engine fan on my 1998 is loud... like a jet engine loud. Engine temps are normal and the ac is super cold. I’m in the mountains so it’s not hot out. There is plenty of coolant. The timing belt and water pump were replaced at 154,000 miles... there are 190,00 on the rig now. I don’t know if it matters but, the thermostat was replaced at around 180,000. When I turn the fan, there is play in it... like maybe 4 inches and then it stops (both directions) if that makes sense.?. I’ve been searching the forums here and have found one that mentions a sensor. I guess my question is should I start with the temperature sensor or does it sound like the fan clutch needs replaced?
