Another interesting fact. I have never heard my (new) clutch fan kick in other than at the first crank of the day.

Today, while watching the gauges at idle, the temp climbed to 205 degrees.

I have a new core in the stock radiator, a heavy duty fan clutch, and a Robert Shaw 195 degree thermostat, tested on the stove before install.

While I watched the gauge, the fan kicked in at 205 degrees indicated, and ran until the temp gauge dropped to 180 degrees. I was impressed. And relieved that the fan seems to be working correctly.
