Can anyone explain the high rev sounding noise I get when I first ride out, whether it be the morning or afternon? It sounds like its stuck in geat, but then calms down after a couple of minutes.

Thanks

Is it OK to run with just the electric fan?
Can you replace the clutch fan with an electric fan? Please explain a bit more.

Thanks

Even though its an automatic, there is still a fan clutch?

you can remove the engine driven fan(clutch fan) has nothing to do with automatic trans or not. i removed mine and ahve had NO probs at all. i live in south louisiana and it's been almost 80 deg @ 6 am everyday and 90's during the day. you may want to get some kind of thermostat switch so the can adjust the temp that the fan comes on. the stock electric fan comes on whenever the a/c compressor is running or when engine temp reaches about 210.
do a search here. there are a lot of post on the subject and decide for yourself.
