My fan is running all the time, I'm pretty sure that means I need to replace the fan clutch. By running all the time, I mean constnatly,....from startup to shutoff...I've never had the fan not run(car isn't overheating ever)Is this a correct assumption?If so...quick writeup of the install for it maybe and part price?

That is normall for a clutch fanwhat the clutch does is allow the fan to turn slower if neccessary, it wont stop unless it is jammed. Your clutch fan is fine if the fan moves when the motor is running.
