Re: [MBZ] Fan clutch removal
Now I recall what I did: HF has a fan clutch or timing belt “kit” that has a piece that is long and flat, maybe 1-1/2” wide, 1/8” thick and 24” long with a plastidip handle on one end and a 3/8” square socket driver on the other. With that I was able to use my regular 3/8” drive hex bit and fit it in there. Dan > On Nov 12, 2016, at 6:31 PM, Dan Penoff wrote: > > I think I just bought a set at HF.

Re: [MBZ] Fan clutch removal
Sometimes it's good to have a tight quarters ratcheting driver. I bought this wrench for my S420 oil pan job last month: http://www.homedepot.com/p/Husky-Microdriver-Set-16-Piece-HRWMD16PCSAE/202934673 Would have greatly preferred this, but it wasn't available in store the day I needed it: http://www.homedepot.com/p/GearWrench-1-4-in-Drive-Micro-Driver-Set-35-Piece-85035/204621228 My Husky has a very rough ratchet on the 1/4" side. There's nothing more annoying than a close quarters ratchet that doesn't ratchet, just turns the screw back and forth, even if you get your other hand in there and put some light pressure on the fastener. ___ http://www.okiebenz.com To search list archives http://www.okiebenz.com/archive/ To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: http://mail.okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com
Re: [MBZ] Fan clutch removal
I think I just bought a set at HF. If it’s for the center bolt on the fan clutch, I just used a regular hex wrench with a long extension over the end to get leverage. With the fan clutch pulley locked in place with the locking tool it comes right off. Dan > On Nov 12, 2016, at 6:24 PM, Kaleb C.
