Nissan Radiator Fan Clutch |
Overheating is the engine trouble you wouldn’t ever want to have, especially when you are out into a place where machine shops are nowhere to be found. This problem however is easy to avoid. Through periodic auto checkup or having an expert machinist monitor its condition from time to time, possible problems that might lead to such trouble would be prevented or given necessary solution. The engine cooling system in particular, must be given enough attention in order to ensure efficient performance, for it is the component which is responsible of keeping the temperature of the engine at a normal level.
The cooling system of your Nissan is comprised of hoses, engine block, expansion tank, radiator, thermostat, water pump and fan. Some of these components carry several more parts, working then as assemblies, one of which is the fan. A Nissan fan assembly is commonly composed of a fan blade, fan pulley, fan motor, fan belt on early Nissans, fan clutch and sometimes fan shroud. The fan works when the Nissan is idling, wherein no cold air coming through the grille could be used for cooling the coolant inside the radiator. Its operation is triggered by a bimetal coil or flat spring acting as thermostatic device and controlled by the Nissan fan clutch.
Nissan fan clutch carries a small fluid coupling that works with the thermostatic device in controlling a variable-speed fan. It is designed to ensure the right speed of fan rotation in order to keep the engine from overheating. When the hotness climbs, fan clutch fully engages to drive the fan to spin faster until the temperature goes back to normal. The fan clutch would reduce the drive slowly as the engine temperature condenses, and partially disengages after reaching the normal level. In the latter operating condition, the engine is able to save some energy which is supposedly be used by the engine crankshaft in pulling the fan belt. At the same time, noise produced when the fan spins fast is minimized.
Replacing a fan clutch that shows possibility of making the engine to overheat is a wise decision. In such way, the trouble wouldn’t progress into a more painstaking problem.
