In initial post Mad Mike writes that there is no overheating or smell associated with the loss of power. I keep coming back to the 45 minutes of idling and the sudden onset. I have never had a fan clutch drag an engine down that much and I have taken a clutch fan off cars in the past and replaced them with non-electric no clutch fan. Never had a transmission, maybe a torque convertor act like that. Per my post and JCL's I can't think of anything other than a cat.
