How do you remove the mechanical fan?

Right?

I haven't had to many issues with stuck bolts / nuts / fasteners, and being in AZ rust isn't really an issue. Now I know to hit a nut / bolt with PB Blaster before I go breaking tools and shit. Live and learn. :happy175:

I wish I could drive through a river of PB Blaster anytime I want to do anything with removing bolts while living in a rust state.....

Working at a hardware store that is one of the more popular items to buy here in chicago. When doing anything anywhere that rust has inhibited.

For those coming across this now and in the future... not sure if the gasser is the same as the CRD, but on the diesel you can put a 13mm socket through the fan pulley (wheel in the serpentine path) and onto the nut on the mid-low right-hand side to keep the fan pulley from spinning while you wrench the large nut that attaches the fan and clutch to the pulley.
