Hey YAL,
Thanks a lot, the spring is back on correctly now.
NEW PROBLEM: The grinding I was mentioning from the fan/alternator/power steering pulley area of the car is no longer a problem. Not a problem because none of them are tunring now since the fan belt was thrown off while driving. The fan belt was thrown off due to a little problem called the entire fan,hydro clutch and fann pulley have seperated them selves from the front of the engine block. YES, actually fallen off the front of the engine and is laying between the fan shroud, the radiator, and the front of the engine block. Have you ever heard this happening? I am not even sure where to start to get this put back on. The the heck happened? Is there a bearing that the pulley shaft rides on that is mounted in the front of theengine block that siezed or something?
