This is a test.
Jeep tj fan clutch test.
Fortunately this is a very easy task to do but like any job the right tools can make all the difference.
To test whether or not your fan clutch needs to be replaced simply spin your jeep s fan by hand while the engine is cold and if it spins freely 5 rotations or more it will need to be replaced.
How can i test the fan clutch to see if it s operating properly.
If the fan cannot be rotated by hand or if there is a rough grating feel as the fan is turned the clutch should be replaced.

Because they transfer huge amounts of energy from the engine to the transmission using pressure and friction these parts are not long for this world.
