Hi Ivanerol.
OK, I went and removed the radiator and the shroud. But still can't get the fan blade assembly off. I made a piece of wire and tried to stick it through the hole but can not seem to find any hole. Perhaps my wire is too thick? What is the trick to getting this wire through the hole. By the way, how come your engine is so clean.

I also tried to remove the three bolts that hold the plastic fan blade to the clutch but one of the bolt is rusted and the allen key just spin freely inside. So I have no choice but try to get the wire trick to hold the pulley in place so I can remove the middle bolt. See the photo.

Notice the indy put green coolant in my car? How could he not know that benz uses special yellow coolant.

I guess I will go back at it Monday night.
