How do u check if the fan clutch is bad? I have mine free spin longer after engine off. I have the gen 3 as well but the 3.8L it shoud be the same removal method

Yes, should be the same removal process . The free spin test didn’t really work for me as you saw in a bunch of videos. In my case it was a process of elimination. We made sure the thermostat was working fine (I replaced it with the OEM) in the pot of boiled water, made sure coolant levels were sufficient. Clutch was the next obvious thing left. I also didn’t hear it spinning before so it was probably just free spinning for a while almost causing an overheating incident. Good luck.
