Hey!
Just installed a new fan clutch (with old fan blade) with the new water pump for my 1500 5.7, 2008, and it sounds like a roaring jet engine all the time. Never disengages, just follows the engines RPM.
Now, I've read all I can find out about this, and gotten different answers, all from "new fan clutch may" be bad to "it's supposed to behave like that". Maybe you all pro's here can give me some input.
The old fan rotated freely by hand and seemed to be working when driving, I never saw it disengage either but it never sounded like this.
Is the new fan clutch just spinning faster somehow? If the old didnt follow the engines rpm?
The sound is roaring and follows the RPM whenever and whereever I'm driving. Gets quieter when cruising at 50 mph and low RPM but whenever I gear down and acc the sound goes up.
The clutch is US MOTOR WORKS MCK1090 from Rockauto
Thanks for any answers.
