FAN AND WINDSHIELD WASHER BOTTLE INSTALLATION

6.1

FAN AND FAN SHROUD INSTALLA-
TION

Start by installing the fan space to the water
pump and tighten to factory specs using
either a factory tool or a 1-1/16" wrench.

With the fan and fan shroud as an assembly,
lower the unit into place, attach the fan to
the fan spacer and using the factory fasten-
ers removed from the fan shroud in a earlier
step, attach the fan shroud to the radiator.
Take care not to over tighten the bolts that
attach the fan shroud to the radiator. Tighten
the fan to factory specs.

WINDOW WASHER BOTTLE INSTALLA-
TION

From under the vehicle, locate the radiator
support using the washer bottle bracket as a
template.

***NOTE***

You may have to bend the bracket slightly for the best fit.
Mark the two holes that will retain the washer bottle
bracket to the core support. Drill the holes using a 3/16"
drill bit.

Install the plastic washer bottle into the
bracket once the bottle has been installed.
Remove the windshield washer pump and
fluid level sensor from the factory washer
bottle and install it into the supplied washer
bottle with the factory grommets. Use a
small amount of silicone sealant on the fac-
tory grommets to prevent leakage.

Install the washer bottle assembly to the
holes your previously drilled in the core.
Support with the supplied sheet metal
screws and attach the washer pump hose to
the outlet using the supplied hose and conn-
tectors. (See Fig. 6-a.)

Cut the pump and fluid level sensor plugs
leaving an adequate amount of wire away
from the plug end. Lengthen the wires.
Using the butt connectors and wire provid-
ed, lengthen the wires and attach the plugs
to the pump and level sensor in their new
location.
