There you go again. "I limped home and saw the aux. fans didn't / wouldn't come on...."

There's your problem. If the aux fans didn't / wouldn't come one, why did you then suspect the fan clutch? The aux fans weren't on, and they should have been on.

Are we using different word for the same item? The fan clutch is for the viscous coupled fan connected to the front of the motor.

The aux fans are the electric-driven fans at the front of the radiator.
