Cooling Fan (Crankshaft driven)
REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION=NBLC0038IDo not release the drive belt tension by removing the fan/water
pump pulley.
IFan coupling cannot be disassembled and should be replaced
as a unit. If front markFis present, install fan so that side
markedFfaces the front.
IInstall the drive belt only after the fan and fan coupling to water
pump flange bolts/nuts have been properly torqued.
IProper alignment of these components is essential. Improper
alignment will cause them to wobble and may eventually cause
the fan to separate from the water pump causing extensive
damage.
SLC067B
INSPECTIONNBLC0039Check fan coupling for rough operation, wobbling, oil leakage or
bent bimetal.
SLC151B
After assembly, verify the fan does not wobble or flap while the
engine is running.
WARNING:
IWhen the engine is running, keep hands and clothing
away from moving parts such as drive belts and fan.
