 Exploder fan Okay fellas,
Quick question(s): how do you get the clutch fan off the water pump on the Explorer 5.0? Is it pressed on there? Maybe I wasn't doing something correctly? Also, which fan is preferable: the plastic or metal ones? It seems like the metal is on '97 and earlier while the plastic is on the '98 and later.
Thoughts?

Re: Exploder fan Two ways:
Buy a Ford clutch fan tool
Remove enough of the bolts to access the nut with a pair of
Channel locks.
The later is more cost effective.

Re: Exploder fan I also have the clutch fan wrench if you need it.
The metal one supposedly is slightly better - I don't know why exactly but must be because I have one. :)
