Default M35A3 Fan Killed Radiator - CAUTION
I was getting ready to leave for my Peoria IL trip this morning and heard a BOOM! The fan killed the radiator!

There is a 1/4" air line that comes in the top of the shroud and is held by an Adel clamp on a bracket. The fan blades hit that clamp and broke.

I will post pics...

Default Yup
I thought the same thing. At least here I have a full shop to take care of the drama. I had the rad out in about 2 hours. My rad guy will have it repaired by noon tomorrow. My critical path is the fan. I am going to check with Cat tomorrow and see if there is on in Houston.

I "may" be on the road tomorrow night to keep with the original schedule. Only time will tell.

Justin, if you need a radiator, contact McCLANAHAN in CA. He has a new radiator for an A3.
