3. Remove the upper engine cover.

TD6 ENGINE, REPAIR WORK, Upper engine casing.

4. Loosen the clamp and disconnect the air hose from the exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) valve. Remove and discard the clamp.

5. Move the hose to the side.

6. Release the cooling system hose from the fan shroud.

CAUTION: The radiator core is vulnerable. Do not allow the core to be damaged by the fan or fan shroud.

7. Disconnect the connector and harness of the additional cooling system fan from the fan shroud.

8. Remove 2 fasteners from the top of the fan shroud and one fastener from the bottom.

9. Lift the fan shroud to release the tabs from the radiator. Move the shroud toward the engine to gain access to the viscous coupling mounting nut.

NOTE: If disassembly was performed only to provide access to other system components, no further disassembly operations should be performed.

10. Using tools LRT-12-094 and LRT-12-214, loosen the fan viscous coupling mounting nut and remove the fan assembly from the coolant pump.

NOTE: This thread is left hand.

11. Remove the cooling fan.

12. Remove the fan protective cover.

13. Unscrew 4 bolts and remove the fan from the viscous coupling.

Assembly

1. Wipe the mating surfaces of the fan and coupling.

2. Place the fan on the viscous coupling and tighten the 4 bolts. Tightening torque 10 Nm.

3. Slide the fan shroud onto the radiator, but do not secure it yet.

4. Install the fan on the pulley and tighten the viscous coupling mounting nut to 45 Nm.

5. Install and secure the fan shroud to the radiator.

6. Secure the fan shroud with the clips.

7. Secure the harness and connector to the casing.

8. Secure the cooling system hose in the clamp.

9. Wipe the EGR valve nipple and the mating part of the intake hose.

10. Using a new clamp, secure the air inlet hose to the exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) valve. The clamp tightening torque is 6 N·m.

11. After waiting 10 minutes, tighten the clamp securing the air hose to the valve again. Tightening torque 6 N·m.

12. Reinstall the upper engine cover.
