As far as I know, you should be able to turn it, but not very freely, should take some effort. Shouldn't be too loose. ----- Original Message ----- From: Bill<mailto:Y1TopBanana73@xxxxxxxxx> To: 62-65 Mopar List<mailto:1962to1965mopars@xxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Monday, April 30, 2007 2:34 PM Subject: Testing a Fan Clutch I've always wondered...how exactly do you test a fan clutch to tell if it's bad or not? Should it spin freely when cold? Have effort? I want to swap in one of my extra 7-blade units into my Coronet for the summer driving and need to know whether I'll have to goto Advance and spend $55 on one or not.
