Fill through the pin hole. Try 15 mL or so, and test to see if the fan pulls. If not, add more in fairly small increments (5mL or so) until it works well. Make sure the pin moves, of course. Problem is that the original fluid leaked out. Adding more will not fix the leak. Peter _

[MBZ] Viscous fan coupler

2009-12-06 Thread Peter Merle
I am attempting to "repair" my OM603 fan coupler - it unit does not appear to have more resistance when hot ( 90deg + ) hot or with control pin ( under the bi-mettalic strip ) removed. How does one inject for silicone fluid into the unit and how does one know when its enough? PEter ___
