yes the fan does bolt to the water pump, no clutch, next is do you have A/C , if yes you should have a five blade steel flex fan with a shroud , if no, you will have a solid four blade fan ,with a cheep cover on top to try to keep hands , fingers , ties etc out of the way, it does have a idiot light , it says engine when you turn on the key before you crank the engine up, if it does not the bulb is burnt out or you have a short, the temp sensor is on the left side (drivers ) in the back on the block, above on the head is the oil pressure sensor , they are both hooked together , when you turn key on , engine light is on, oil press switch is grounded , engine is started the oil pressure switch ungrounds , light goes off, engine runs hot and temp sensor grounds same wire light comes on, engine running hot could be in the past the coolent system was not taken care of, signs of rust big time , flushing now may be to late, you might have a clogged radiator and or the tin impeller on the water pump has rusted away ( seen that one before) or worse you might have a cracked head , that may have happen when the idiot light was not hooked up when the car overheated real bad one time , hope this helps , good luck
