Help need a GSL-SE fan clutch at Sevenstock

Does anyone have a GSL-SE fan clutch they can bring to Sevenstock?

I drove my GSL-SE out to Sevenstock with the Arizona RCCAZ caravan. My fan clutch decided to give up the ghost in Indio CA. Mazdatrix is already closed and the local parts store say wensday maybe "which doenst work". If anyone has a good one lying around they could sell me at Sevenstock it would be greatly appriciated. PM me. Im driving the silver 84 GSL-SE with the Sevenstock 9 banner on the windshield.

Thanks in advance
Eric G.

Not to hijack, but what is the difference between a 12a and a 13b fan clutch? A year ago a so my SE was running hot and found my fan clutch free wheeling. Did not have any spare SE clutches on hand but several 12a's. The bolt pattern was the same so used one of the 12a's, problem solved.

Another person is having the same problem in phonix and told me none of the 12A fan clutches would fit the GSL-SE, I know it has a spacer unlike my 79 model. Parts listing show a seperate one for gsl-se's. Im up for anything that will work at this point.

The 84 85 models should all have the same clutch. The pupose of the spacer in those models is to allow for the power steering pulley and belt. 83 models may also work. You could probably pick one up in ecology auto wrecking or pick your part.

12a and 13b are different for 84-85 well see what we can get to work, the difference might be in how close they put the fan to the radiator. The 13b sits closer to the front due to its extra length. If all else fails an e-fan direct wired could be jerry rigged.
