Fan or no fan
Do you have to remove radiator fan housing to lift the head or can it stay on?

Re: Fan or no fan
Are you talking about a fan shroud on the radiator, or the fan blade connected to the water pump? I would remove the water pump before lifting the head.

Re: Fan or no fan
You can disconnect radiator hose at the top. Unhook the 2 radiator support rods. Leave radiator shell on and pull forward and clamp to headlight bar to give room to pull head with water pump on. I just did this and it worked fine but you still need to be careful not to damage rthe radiator. Ron

Re: Fan or no fan
Like Ron said. The one other thing that I do is put a big sheet of cardboard between the radiator and the fan to hep protect the radiator while you are pulling things out.

Re: Fan or no fan
Thank you! The radiator is not on at the moment so this works out great!

 Yesterday's lesson learned............don't put a pumpkin pie in the oven, then lay down on the couch when you are sleepy.  It was only 20 minutes extra burned.

Stew, yes, I live right down the street from the parade route but had to work. Really wished I was off that day to bend some ears...

Re: Fan or no fan
haha I did too... I blame Tom burning his pumpkin pie... speaking of the punkin pie holiday is near - everyone knows its against the law to serve pumpkin pie with no whipped creme correct? The proper amount is to do a nice 1/4" layer of it over the entire slice on all sides....

Re: Fan or no fan
Heh, looks like I'm not going to be correct because I am going to bury my pie with as much whipped cream as I can get away with!
