Message	Hi gang - I have suddenly begun overheating on my 1990 TT with 117k miles. Just bought the car a couple thousand miles ago. Radiator was full of crap, flushed it. Coming out fairly clean now. Upper radiator hose gets hot so I believe thermostat is working. Radiator cap is fine, just replaced (couldn't find a tester that fit the cap). No hose leaks. Aux fan is working when I jumper temp sending unit. In this vid I spin the fan after a minute of idling from a cold start. Is this fan clutch shot? Thank you.
