You need to put a block of wood against the blade of the fan in a way as to prevent the fan from turning. It is advised to wrap this block in an old towel or large rag to protect the fan blade.

How do you get the fan out to get to the water pump of a 1992 ford explorer?

It is a fan with a clutch. You have to have clutch wrentches to remove it. The nut that holds it to the water pump is an 1 1/2 nut. You have to hold the water pump pulley from turning and loosen the nut by turning it counter clockwise (as you are looking at it).


How do you remove a fan clutch to get to the water pump?

There are usually 4 bolts that hold the clutch to the water pump shaft. It's often an awkward process to hold the shaft from turning while you remove the bolts, but it can be done.There is a tool available to assist in holding the shaft in place. Most auto parts store will allow you to "borrow" the tool if they have one available. I used a pipe wrench when I did it, but the clearance is difficult.As a note: when you replace the water pump, replace the thermostat at the same time as you will have the needed clearance to reach it.

How do you replace the engine fan in Mazda mpv 2001?

First you have to remove the fan shroud which is bolted to the radiator and front cross bracket with 10mm bolts. There should be 4 10mm bolts that hold the fan and clutch to the water pump. What you generally have to do is find a way to hold the clutch fan in place, I have used a large flat tip screwdriver in the past. Then you have to loosen the 4 bolts and remove the clutch and fan as a single unit. Once out of the vehicle you should be able to remove the fan from the clutch unit and only replace the clutch unit itself. Hope that helps a little Michael
