today, I took and covered the front end of the car with a cloth tarp to warm it up, and ran that car till the aux fans cut in. Then I shut the car down. The clutch had cut in, but it wasn't too hard to spin with the car off. I could spin it about half a turn without too much effort. The clutch had a heat reading of 80, and the shaft area of the drive pulley read 82C... Are those signs that the fan clutch needs to be replaced?
