OK, I have messed up somehow, I took all the engine tin off, the fan and large fan shroud etc., had stuff powder coated and cleaned. Started putting things back on last night and the fan is not centered in it's hole, it is touching on the alternator side. What has happened?

Check to make sure that the hub or any bolts going through the hub aren't cutting into that front seal, loosen the hub bolt, and try to see if it spins. If it doesn't, its probably something else.
Don't do this if the distributor is out though, it can bind like bondo says. And if you force it, the gear on the crank (soft brass) can get chewed up. -Chris |
