OK so now after the fan blower works, I'll get down to the big issues I'm facing.
So my truck idles high at ignition and fan runs fast and I can hear the common issue of the clutch clicking. So I clean my throttle body every 6 months or so sometimes if I'm bored it's every 3... so I'm thinking my fan and high idle have to do with the clutch so I'm thinking I'll be replacing that any ideas on that one? Also I'm going to the Mechanic very soon to have the codes ran, if I ever have the spare cash I'd buy a code reader/diagnostic tool but never do anyways as i have the ses on - its on because I have a bad vvt solinoid I am replacing very soon. So onto more I believe I have a bad thermostat or coolant temp gauge termo goes bad 10x more... temp wavers a bit so I'm replacing one or both since the alternator is going to be pulled but also want to know which one is bad so hopefully a code hits. So down to exaust I've been told about a year go my cat might be bad but no way of know without more test... so it might me my upstream oxygen sensor can't tell I think the code came back a bad sensor but I need a new read to get the codes down right. Any info narrowing down the issues before I take it to get the codes would be awesome! Just trying to get my bearings as the codes far to often are generic with no precise cause. Thank you.
Also need to replace the muffler is has a cheap repair sealing a hole... or 2
