Re: [T3] Noise, pulley etc


I had the same symptoms and the fan was the problem. The fan is held to its 
hub with rivets. The rivets had loosened over the years allowing the fan to 
wobble around. My solution was to remove the fan, make sure the space 
between the fan and hub is comlpletely clean and peen the rivets back down 
with a large punch. After checking the assembly for runout I welded the fan 
to the hub to prevent the problem from re-occuring. I can't Imagine removing 
the fan without removing the muffler.
