Fan Clutch nuts, overtightened and stripped 200 1987

posted by  someone claiming to be David on  Tue Jun 26 18:27 CST 2001 [RELATED]

So in respomse to my overheat at idle (sse earlier posts) I went and bought a fan clutch. Unfortunatly I can't get the old one off.

Using a 10mm box wrench I pulled my hardest, and I couldn't budge the nuts.

I tried clockwise (like I was told) and then for a goof counter-clockwise. All I turned was the water pump. I tried every nut and they were all the same, except the last one, that one I didnt even try b/c that one was STRIPPED. Thats when I gave up. Any suggesstions on how I can do this. VERY fustrating.

I am not the biggest person in the world, but I am more than strong enough. I could kill the person who put in the last water pump -- unfortunatly I dont know who it is
