 Topic: WD45 Radiator
Posted: 07 May 2018 at 7:47pm |
So I got a new clancy radiator for the 45. Did a dry fit and as fully expected as nothing is ever easy, the fan blades do not clear the radiator...I do hope what is pictured below is about dialing in or out the fan blade to make it clear. Of course that is frozen up too...

That adjustment is for the width of the sheave only. Looks to me that your fan is on backwards. You might try flipping it around and see how it fits.

Hmm.....on backwards? Would that push the air the wrong way?

My 45 has a 5 blade fan. It wouldn't clear my new radiator shroud. I had to grind a little on the blades.

Not only when you reverse the blades, you turn it the other way so it still moves air, just not as efficiently. Look at the blades. They should look somewhat concaved away from the radiator. Sort of like this. l (
