So Monday of this week I started noticing a loud "fan" noise coming from under the hood when driving my truck. Only when the truck was warmed up. Everytime you press the gas pedal or accelerate it made the noise. At the same time my Temp gauge would completely drop out and give no reading. Once I sat at an idle or put the truck in park for about a minute the gauge would come back to a normal reading.
Local shop said it was the fan clutch. Said my last one was completely shot. So I get a new one installed and pick up the truck this evening. About an hour later and only 30min of driving the truck the Temp gauge is not reading at all and the fan noise is back but seems to be worse.
Is it the fan clutch going out again?? Or something out perhaps going out now?
I have no idea where to start. Coolant is fine and full. Reads normal temp. Oil temp is fine as well.
