the other night i looked down at my temp while i was at a idle for about 10 mins... it was creeping up there... so i started going home... got going down the road and it went back down.. then when i got home i popped the hood... looked at the anti-freeze and so on... couldnt think of what the deal was... untill i turned it back on and reliezed the fan wasnt running... i can get a new motor for about 25 bucks... wouldnt you guys just say the motor went out? heres my real question... how hard is it to install the new motor? and will it take that long? what's all needed and what to look for... i have to do this in about one hour cuz then it gets dark... and i have to work everday and with school i never have anytime...

 

Takes 10mins to install new motor. You want to know if its dead? There are two wires runing from the front of the fan. Just cut them and touch one wire to the pos, and one to the neg. It doesn't matter which one touches neg or pos. If it spins, its not dead.

There are 4 bolts that hold the fan on the fan shourd. And 3 on the fan itself. Takes 10 mins like I said, super easy and fast.

 

thanks a lot
hope to get it done this sat

 

Oh, the one bolt that holds the fan blade onto the fan motor is reverse threaded.
