Default Re: Fan Explosion - Please read

After removing the radiator I noticed a crack in the upper drivers side tank which could have caused an overheating problem. The added stress of high RPM with an engaged fan clutch could have overstresses the fan. Got it fixed this weekend and added a strap to control engine lift. Replacing that motor mount looks like a PITA.
