Has anyone compared the 2 different fan clutches available for the 79’ and I presume later with and without A/C for differences?
I am looking for a little better cooling on my 79’ FJ40 with aftermarket (CCOT) A/C.
While stopped my engine temperature rises not to hot or even to the hash before the H, but definitely gets noticeably warmer. I can lower the temp by raising the engine RPM a few hundred.
After reading several threads I feel this could be due to the original fan clutch getting weaker and am going to replace with a new OEM.
My thought is to replace with the one designated for factory A/C (even know my ac is aftermarket) in hopes that will engage a slightly lower Temp and help overall cooling.
Anyone else tried this change?
