Cooling Fan Doesnt Shut Off

The fan will spin with the engine running when cold but not at the same speed as when the engine is hot.


Can you spin the fan by hand when the engine is cold and not running?

As the airflow through the radiator heats up, the fan should be harder to spin by hand, with the engine not running.

IMHO if the fan is hard to spin by hand when the engine is cold the thermostatic clutch would need to be replaced.
