Fan Always On!
The fan is always angaged, is that normal?, it doesnt matter if is cold or hot, and when I shut of the engine it doesnt spins freely for a moment, but if I move it by hand it can be rotate several times it doesnt get "hard". That could be the reason I have bad MPG? 
Thanks in advance

I found this on e-bay
eBay Motors: Fan Clutch F350 Power Stroke (item 200267767374 end time Nov-01-08 18:35:09 PDT)
would be good idea to buy it used, and the 95 is the same as 96?
here is another brand new (I think) but looks a little different:

It sounds like your fan clutch is staying engaged.
Last time I priced one it was over $200 from International.

I doubt the fan would create bad MPG. Have you check your spedo for accuracy, maybe using milemarker posts ?

I did the same thing. I have a Ford to International conversion, but I can't seem to find the Ford number either.
Hussler, when the fan is engaged it seriously robs the engine of power and performance. I think it reduces power up to %20 percent on some towing applications.

$238 from here. No part number though, I can get the Ford Part number tomorrow. IH number will be harder to get.
