quick question/clutch fan
Should it turn freely....mine is solid, as in, I can turn the water pump pulley(by turning the fan) and the belt will slip under that pulley. Is this what they call a locked clutch fan?
She squeals like a pig when I rev 'er up!
Car has sat for many years and I just rebuilt carb and did tune up (plugs, wires, cap an rotor)...old gal purrs like a kitten....but she does like to squeal...

You must replace it because your water pump bolts will loosen until it begins leaking. AutoZone stocks them.
