Frax Posted April 10, 2011 Share Posted April 10, 2011 I am trying to remove the viscous fan, the thing wont budge. I know it has a left hand thread and I have a 32 mm spanner on it and have given it a lot of sharp knocks with a big hammer but no luck. Just to make sure I am hitting it in the correct direction can you tell me do I hit it from the left side down towards the power steering pump. The radiator is out and I am standing at the front of the engine from here I take it that the engine turns in a clockwise direction. Am I missing something?
