Hi all, the former owner's mechanic thought it a good idea to bolt the fan clutch (probably to prevent overheating)
Now the fan clutch spins all the time - even when the engine is cold which is noisy and fuel consuming.
I got a used but pretty new fan clutch with the fan and I'm interested to remove the old ones and replace them.
Was looking for the procedure in the FSM but could not find any steps.

Can someone give some tips? What should be removed? I don't want remove the radiator if not needed..
Thanks!!

Thanks buddy! No need to lock the pulley or loosen any belts?
Is it that simple?
