  Q: How to Remove and Install a Fan Blade, Fan Clutch, and Fan Shroud on Ford E-150 Econoline?

  A: Service and repair operations on the fan clutch start with cooling system drainage followed by air cleaner assembly removal then plastic rivet retainer and Air Deflector removal. Detach the upper Radiator hose then disconnect the overflow hose which runs from the radiator. Rotating the clutch assembly nut clockwise is necessary for its removal because this large nut features a right-hand thread. You need to detach first the fan and fan clutch from the water pump pulley before removing its bolts followed by lifting the fan shroud and the fan clutch and the fan from the vehicle. After raising the vehicle for support you should remove any existing underbody splash shield followed by cutting off the lower radiator hose. Insert a clamp compressor and pull the clamps back from the radiator while using the right-hand screw rotation to detach transmission oil cooler hoses. Start by lowering the vehicle and unscrew the support bracket-to-radiator support bolts before lifting and pulling the brackets up from the radiator. Take the radiator out after finishing the removal process. To install the new radiator use the opposite method of removal by returning hose clamps to original locations that had used shrink clamps.
