Did you make sure the new fan had enough clearance from the wp housing ? That was my problem. Remove the belt and spin the fan and listen carefully. My fan came with directions to be sure to check this issue. I had to remove some metal from the wp housing to fix the squeal. I think that using the clutch only changes the motor rpm so the squeal varies. Good luck.
