Subject:??re rad. fan & clutch

Hi list members!
I have been trying to quiet some of the squeaks, rattles and bumps in my '90
Westy.
I have padded out the two grills and the front bumper so they no longer
rattle around.
Two questions:
    1. There is an annoying squawk or squeak from the clutch linkage under
the dash,
    when I push in and let out the pedal. There appears to be plenty of
grease on the
    pivot point. Any ideas where this noise may be coming from and how I can
get at
    it to lube it?

    2. Should the radiator fan turn freely like an ordinary electric fan?
When I move it with
    my finger, there seems to be some resistance. It does work, but is a
little noise.

Thanks,

Jerry
