    No water pump on a clk. Having a whale of a time trying to get the fan off.

    As it turns out someone turned up with an adjustable wrench that fitted but sadly it didn't work out.
    Can't get enough purchase on the four smaller 10mm bolts with any flat head screwdrivers I have, I've bent one, shattered another and the rest I can't get enough purchase with.
    Anyone any ideas?

    Any ideas?
    Second picture is a close up of the small bolts you're supposed to use to hold the pump steady.

    The only thing I can think of at the moment would be to use a bit of heat on each bolt. Then try you're method of levering with a flat head driver.

    Thanks but I'm not actually around tomorrow. Was hoping to get it sorted tonight as I won't be back up this way til next Friday, I'm officially calling it a night.
    Got plenty of other things sorted on it today so not too bothered about leaving it till next Friday.

    Visco fan? Sure it's not a 32mm and left handed thread?

    Pity I didn't see this in time I was in that area around that time earlier! :eek:

    Nope definitely a 34mm.
    My collection only goes up to a 32mm and then randomly a 40mm by its lonesome self.

    Thanks though.
