Question type: Maintenance & Repair
I'm replacing the cooling fan on my 454 Chevy engine and need to know which direction
does the band go on? I know there's a way it's his front on it stamped but my fan that I
bought does not have that and I need to know which direction those fins go.

Here's the thing I put the new fan clutch on and it's the old fan but I painted over the words that said FRONT, so now I don't know for sure if I put it on facing the right way. THAT I CAN RECALL THE TRUCK NOW SOUNDS LOUDER AND ALSO GETS WORSE GAS MILEAGE AND SEEMS TO DRAG AND I JUST WAS WONDERING IF I DID PUT IT IN THE WRONG WAY WOULD IT BE PUSHING OR PULLING THE AIR WRONGLY.
Have a 96 dually and the auxiliary electric fan only works when it wants to. What controls that fan and where is it ?
Control module on driver fire wall and temp sensor on manifold
