1st half.
Driving from Fremont to pick up my niece in Orange County, Ca (near Disneyland) everything was going well until we came down a long grade in 2nd gear. As the temp gauge began to drop the fan started to ROAR! It stayed stuck on for about 50 miles, or so, then it quieted down.

Well once we go into traffic it was clear that there was no fan action at all! We pulled over into a shady spot at a hotel in Santa Barbara and considered our options. My wife suggested "Call Jim Kowamoto" I knew who she meant. I called Jim, he gave me a part number for a fan clutch, I called a local auto parts store (Larry's Auto Parts) who, after some gentle pleading from my wife, delivered the part to us.

Put it in, no more trouble!

To be continued...
