36Tighten the coolant pump securing bolts,
and where applicable the pump pulley
securing bolts, to the specified torque.
37On completion, refill the cooling system.
Refer to Chapter 1, Section 21.
Removal
1Remove the alternator drivebelt.
2Loosen the alternator lower mounting
through-bolt, then remove the alternator
upper mounting bolt and swing the alternator
away from the engine.
3Unscrew the central securing bolt, and
withdraw the drivebelt tensioner assembly
(see illustration).
Refitting
4Commence refitting by positioning the
tensioner on the cylinder block, ensuring that
the lug on the rear of the tensioner bracket
engages with the corresponding hole in the
cylinder block. Tighten the securing bolt.
5Swing the alternator into position, to align
the upper mounting bolt hole with the
corresponding hole in the drivebelt tensionerassembly. Refit the upper mounting bolt, and
tighten the upper bolt and lower through-bolt.
6Fit the drivebelt by reversing the removal
procedure, and release the tensioner to
tension the drivebelt.
7Observe the tensioner indicator, which
should be central in its slot (see illustration).
Removal
1Disconnect the battery negative lead.
2Remove the four retaining clips and
unscrew the two retaining screws, then
withdraw the upper section of the fan shroud
(see illustrations).
3The cooling fan hub nut must now be
unscrewed from the coolant pump drive
flange. A thin cranked 32.0 mm (1.25 in AF)
spanner with a jaw thickness not exceeding
5.0 mm (0.2 in) will be required (see
illustration). Alternatively, if two of the
coolant pump pulley bolts are removed, a
normal thickness spanner can be used.Note
that the fan hub nut has a left-hand thread, (ie
it is undone in a clockwise direction.) If the
pulley turns as the nut is undone, remove the
drivebelt, and clamp an old drivebelt round
the pulley to restrain it, using self-locking
pliers. Tap the spanner with a mallet if
required to remove the nut.4If required, the fan blades can be separated
from the fan hub by unscrewing the four
securing bolts.
Refitting
5Refitting is a reversal of removal, but where
applicable, take care not to overtighten the
bolts securing the fan blades to the fan hub,
as thread damage may require the whole unit
to be renewed. Where applicable, refit and
tension the drivebelt.
CVH models
1Disconnect the battery negative lead.
Unclip the wiring connector from the fan
motor then unscrew the retaining nuts and
washers. Withdraw the fan shroud and
cooling fan assembly (see illustration).
2To remove the fan blades, prise the
securing clip from the end of the motor shaft
(see illustration).
3The motor can be separated from the fan
shroud by unscrewing the three securing nuts
and bolts.
4Where two cooling fans are fitted, both fans
are secured to the fan shroud in the same
manner.
5Refitting is a reversal of removal, but when
refitting the fan blades, ensure that the
direction of rotation arrow faces away from
the motor, towards the radiator.
