Fan and Belt

The radiator was still out from last time, so we first installed the fan, and the fan bolts. Once that was secured, we then re-assembled the radiator. Much easier to get things done when they happen in the correct order.


Once the fan was in place, we put the main belt on and tensioned it up. This will need to be adjusted once we get the engine running, and it's had a few cycles on it.

We re-attached all the radiator, cabin, and carburetor hoses. The engine compartment is starting to look whole again.

Radiator, UnRadiator

We installed the radiator and fan cowling, and then realized that we would not be able to reach the fan bolts to secure the fan. So we had to remove the radiator again. This was a short work night, but we learned something about the order of re-assembly.
