I was wondering if anyone could tell me what all has to come off and in what order they have to come off in order to remove and replace the engine cooling fan. I am trying to avoid draining the radiator. Please let me know asap. Also are there any specialty tools I need like a bolt puller or anything like that? I have sockets and rachet and the other basic tools. Thanks again.

Hello,

It looks like the radiator will need to be removed so start by disconnecting the battery and then drain the coolant, here are the instructions on how to change out the radiator fan in the diagrams below. Check out the diagrams (Below). Please let us know if you need anything else to get the problem fixed.
