Finally started my winter project of upgrading everything behind the apron.
had a good day:
removed bumper, apron ( after removing the wrong set of bolts under the wings), radiator, wide water pump pulley, generator, 4 blade paddle fan , wide crank pulley, fan extension & hub.
my problem is that the fan extension is affixed to the crank hub. It looks like a heavy epoxy, silicone or a weld, it's pretty tough though & wasn't influenced by a pry bar. I ran out of steam before I could work on separating it with greater enthusiasm. but I am wondering is this common?
also, note the angle of the extension in relation to the hub. It is not true. I'm surprised the old girl didn't shake herself to death.
any thoughts/advice appreciated.
best regards,
Guy
