Quick cooling fan question
« on: May 16, 2014, 03:21:45 AM »
So this may be a dumb question but do I need a fan clutch if I use a flex fan? Trying to decide if I need to order one or just have it bolt right up and spin constantly....

no clutch. but a clutch fan works better cause when you floor it it will slip and the engine doesnt have to spin it at engine speed. even when driving down the road still the same thing. at idle when the clutch gets warm it will drag
