Frontier SE King Cab 4WD L4-2.4L (KA24DE) (1998)
Fan Blade: Service and Repair
REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION
-
Do not release the drive belt tension by removing the fan/water pump pulley.
-
Fan coupling cannot be disassembled and should be replaced as a unit. If front mark (F) is present, install fan so that side marked (F) faces the
front.
-
Install the drive belt only after the fan and fan coupling to water pump flange bolts/nuts have been properly torqued.
-
Proper alignment of these components is essential. Improper alignment will cause them to wobble and may eventually cause the fan to separate
from the water pump causing extensive damage.
INSPECTION
Check fan coupling for rough operation, silicon oil leakage and bent bimetal.
After assembly, verify the fan does not wobble or flap while the engine is running.
WARNING: WHEN THE ENGINE IS RUNNING, KEEP HANDS AND CLOTHING AWAY FROM MOVING PARTS SUCH AS
DRIVE BELTS AND FAN.
