I am just getting back into the GMC. Here is a question about the fan clutch operation. I have a cold engine so I step on the gas to set the automatic choke. I crank it over and the engine starts. I have the engine cover off and notice the fan clutch is engaged immediately which blows a heavy wind back into my face. I thought I remembered the fan clutch was not supposed to engage until the engine temp reached a certain level. I think my clutch is stuck on all the time but what is the correct operation? I know I should remember this but I did recently have my 70th birthday so I know my brain cell capacity is waning.
Thanks
