thanks for all the input, I will look into the thermostat more first, if it appears that its not closing I will replace it, if things still dont change I will try the fan clutch and let you know what happens.

Your on the right track, -get the 192 - 195's have had problems in the past , -many. Defective part. It may take a few drive cycles, but proper function will train your clutch fan (so to speak) . Make sure you post back the out come. Please.

Hey, Brew said "Please" and "Thank you"! Must mean he's mellowing. That's what happens to ya when ya get old! JK Couldn't resist that Brew. You are a tremendous asset to this forum. If the professional mechanics knew as much as you, their customers would be in a lot better shape!

Nah, not getting old, -I just logged back on to edit and delete that , so the pain would go away. But you quoted me!!! Oh well, I have a box of drugs around here somewhere. ? Damn dog prolly buried them again.
Ill change the thermostat after work tomorrow and let you know the outcome, ....why is there a little red thumbs down at the top left of one of my previous posts, I dont know how it got there and its drivin me nuts.
Just an update, I changed the thermostat, turns out it was stuck open. Now it operates at normal temp, and warms up alot faster. ...Although I am still skeptical abou the fan clutch, I will have to go for a ride with a couple buddies that have the same truck as I do because I still think the fan shouldnt roar the way it does off the line, but who knows maybe thats normal, I am used to my quiet little ranger.
