    Default Fan Clutch Question

    I'm realtively a newbie and am planning to tackle the waterpump on my car this weekend. I've read the previous posts and know that you need to take out the fan clutch by taking a 32mm wrench and whacking it towards the drivers side (so drivers side direction loosens the clutch)...my question is.......

    1. When re installing the new fan clutch how tight does the new one have to go on? It seems like the fan rotates towards the drivers side when the car is running so one would think that it would have to be pretty tight to prevent the fan clutch from spinning off.

    Am I correct on this?


    TIA
