    how do I take off the fan clutch?

    I'm changing my TB right now and took all the hoses and radiator out. Now just have to take off the fan clutch. I have one of those skinny hex wrenched. My question is how do I get the bolt off without the turning the belts?

    Get a hammer or something large to smack the end of the wrench hard. You shouldn't have to do anything else. Remember it's reverse threaded though.

      you also never said anything about having the (required) 32mm open ended wrench...
      whack it once with a dead blow hammer adn I bet it is outta there.

      Remember, on the big nut, righty-loosey!
