          doesn't look new, but go for it, the most you can lose is $30 something

            Cooling systems are for pussies.

            I ran with no fan at all for 3 years. When the shit overheated (which was often, traffic was a no no) I pulled the fuck over and sat on the side of the road like a REAL man!

            None of that "carry a gallon of water" shit for me, neither...I PUSHED my heap of shit to the gas station and PAID for my goddamn water, 50-fucking-cents at a time!

            fucking kids these days I swear

                    Congrats. You saved $11 compared to buying a good quality fan clutch from a reputable seller. (BMA parts)

                    I guess every penny counts though.

                      Just would suck if this one is trash once you put it in.

                        its new, how can it be trash? odd that it is rusty on the data tag though.-- a fan clutch works, or it does'nt there are no inbetweens-- heck, my cheap ass would go to the junkyard before paying that much though.

                          I blame the bad economy.

                          I hope your shit does not overheat and warp your head. Its not that expensive to do a head job though:roll:

                              what's the test again?

                              if fan can be stopped with a rolled-up newspaper, it's time to replace the fan clutch?
