Fan clutch??

Temps outside 100+. My fan is running on high from 190-196 ect! Could it be sticking? So in other words driving in town it's always running on high just started this yesterday! Thanks in advance for any help

Imo, it should normally run around town and keep your temp at 190*, so I'm not sure you should be concerned.

Thanks. It just kinda sucks if someone pulls up messing with me I'm hard pressed to get on her cause the fan is on high! Lol

I have noticed when my Air Intake Temp got a little high at an intersection my fan turned on. Maybe that has something to do with it...

Just put a heavy duty one on my work truck, much louder when taking off then quiets down. It's a gasser with 200+ miles, but fan operation should be the same. (90+ temps here). Other than making sure coils & radiator are clean I wouldn't worry about it.
