INSPECTION
Cooling Fan Check

^
If any portion of the fan is damaged or cracked, replace the cooling fan.

Check Check to ensure that fluid in the fan clutch is not leaking at the case joint and seals. If fluid quantity decreases due to leakage, the fan speed
will decrease and engine overheating might result.

faulty.
