have one of those magnet pickup tools handy. Do not fire up the engine until you've made sure the fan doesn't scrape the housing. Give it a test spin before putting the fan belt on.

I think I've got a good start myself. But, I'm low on oil filters as I blew thru 3 of them in a week!

Ice, hope that your car does'nt get too hungry..oops thirsty with all that oil sitting beside it. Actually it might work to your benefit. When I go to the buffet, the sight of all that food just supresses my appetite.

rus magnetic screwdriver is the best tip . I found it possible to rotate somewhat to get all the tiny screws on first as far as I can cw than ccw. but it aint easy the first time you do it

Well. That was fun!!, Kinda like going to see the proctologist and him using a couple hands and a foot or two. Holy crap!!!

On another note, I sure appreciate the encouragement by all you guy's, who thought a pilot could fix stuff...we are known for just breaking things.

If your watching it, enjoy the hockey game tonight, should be some wicked hard hits.

I do, I wish you luck, it just takes patience. I was on the edge of giving up and it just went togeather. No probs after that. Unreal the frustration to begin with though. Toughest part was the cooling shroud. I am glad I was by myself

Let me know how you make out,

Rod,
