HELP! Radiator fan...

my left radiator fan seems to make a weird noise... well I figured out that it is loose and wobbling. nothing serious which is a sigh of relief... How do you tighten those fans? I can't seems to figure out how to disassemble it. thanks!

i think that there are three bolts on the inside of the fan housing that are holding each of the fans in. I can't remember right off hand, but i think if you take out two bolts on top of the housing and disconnect the fans and the entire unit will come out. then you can make sure your fans are secure.

your fan motor needs to be replaced, and the noise will get worse soon if you don't do it soon.....90 bucks at autozone each......search fan removal or radiator removal for instructions how to do this......oh and change both cause you dont wanna do it again in A few months when the other one goes
