Short Shaft Fan Clutch
Does this fan look like the blades are turned right? This
FAN fits most Dakotas with a 5.9 engine. The fan has "front" stamped on it and that is faced towards the front of the car.
I just installed the 2947 clutch/fan and the temperatures have sky rocketed!
What I did have was a constant meshed steel fan and the temps stayed around 195º but now the temps are right at 210º.
I pulled over and popped the hood so the engine would cool down and then brought it home. After it cooled down ... when I got back out on the road... the engine spit and sputtered ... like it was vapor locking. After cool fuel got to the carb I didn't have that problem any longer. None of this ever happened with the other fan!
