    I think Al is referring to the blades not being all evenly spaced apart from each other.


    Yup, that is why I thought it was called a vicious fan. The way the blades were offset :2thumbs:  thanks i'm not myself lately, been over working myself

    The "Viscous" Part of the fan I always thought refers to the Silicone fluid inside the clutch itself.
    No, the 7 blade fan's blades are evenly spaced last time I checked.

    Cooter is right about the fluid and spacing. I would really recommend a
    MP fan clutch. They work better and last longer than any aftermarket clutch available.
    We had to warranty countless fan clutches in the aftermarket world.

    The stock 7 blade has an offset on the blades.

    Can anyone tell me what the part number is that is correct for a 7 blade viscous fan and the correct part number for the clutch part?

    I am in search of both of the above and want to make sure I don't buy twice as a result of improper fitment.

    If anyone has any spares, let me know or PM me.

    Thanks ..... CHAPS
