Ive found 2 clutch fans in my parts pile. One is a newer off set 5 blade and the other is a bigger 7 blade. Any way to bench test these and see if they are still good? Both turn stiff and tight untill about 10-20 revolutions then they spin much more freely. They both have a little wiggle / loosenes

Hi: Try warming up the clutch with a hair dryer or heat gun! It should get stiffer to turn as it warms up! I installed one on the Fargo. I had to move the rad forward to fit. I was told the critical measurment was to be 1" from the rad core to the clutch fins. Mine was from a 98 360, 5 blade. Works like a champ!
