I spun it again with a lot more force this time and I got it 5/6 of a turn...Not quite one full rotation, but close.

Temperature stays OK when idling, but it does not roar at all -- ever not even first start. I thought it was strange when I first got the car because of it, but I thought it was because the cooling system was OK...but now ever since the scary stuck in traffic red line event, I need it to be functional.

My aux fan does not engage either, but I'll tackle that once the VFC is functional.
