Genius trick for installing the fan clutch

[modernist]

I like this. I replaced a fan clutch with the radiator/hoses in place and it was a PITA. I guess I wasn't blessed with Cabriolet's gossamer-thin fingers

i'm surprised you knew the existence of other countries, let alone that we're on the side of the planet.

i usually get one of the kangaroos jumping down the street to give me a hand on things like this

warm weather ftl, already had a day 108F, plus a couple about 100 or so and not into the hottest part yet. it makes me think dirty thoughts to upgrade from an e30

Ahhh, the heat isn't all bad! I like how you used Fahrenheit and not Celsius :p

Bloody have a go mate!

^ that sounds scary. Lol



Note: this is a tip for when the radiator is in place. Without the radiator, it's a piece of cake obviously.

yeah, I have done it with the radiator in place. Did not take much time at all. Line it up and spin it in.

I cut the crap out of my hands before I figured out a way. I'm about to start a thread or something like how big are your hands?

[Kershaw]

You need to start wearing gloves. Those $2.99 black cloth rubber palm ones from hf are great. Pretty thin. Disposable. They protect the back of my hands nicely against the radiator. I've had too many busted knuckles. My hands are average, not large.

never had a problem with this. just held two of the blades and slowly rotate till it gets started. then just spin it. sure you may drop it once or twice and maybe scuff up your knuckles the first time but its really not that hard IMO
