Default Napa fan clutch

Hello everyone,

I happen to be one of those eccentric owners that likes to replace certain things periodically that most people would not. Thermostats, CTS's, coolant pressure caps get arbitrarily replaced every one to two years....another of those things is my fan clutch. I have tried everything from one I bought at the dealer, to one I bought at Motorcars LTD. Last time I bought one from Napa for 55.00. It seemed a little smaller than the other I had, but I think it worked fine. Is anyone else running one of these Napa clutches? It's about time for me to get a new one and was going to go for the cheap Napa fan again.

I run the Napa fan clutch. I replaced my cracking yellow fan to the black fan and the aftermaket fan clutch that was installed by the PO did not fit the new black fan. The Napa fan clutch is the same size diameter as the one originally fitted by Jaguar. Works fine. It cost a little over 60 bucks because they had to order it and have it shipped.

Thanks for your reply. Just wanted to do a little check in to get feedback. No sense in buying the 200.00 jaguar part if the Napa is the same !
