yeah it should spin, but there should be a bit of resistance in it.
Have you been having over heating problems ? If not then it's probably doing it's job fine. |

Give it a bit of a spin (when the engine isn't running, obviously) and if there's too much or no resistance it's buggered, but if there's a little almost negligible bit of resistance to spin it should be fine.
Clutch fans are the shit ;) Sundeep |
