Looking for the following parts... Thanks Number 37, 38 and 39 in this picture And numbers 41 and 42 with the relevant pins?
37, 38, 39 - very easy to make up from a small piece of metal - it's just a small flat bit with a hole in one end, with washer and 6mm(?) bolt. It's just to stop the flap bar moving up. Sizeis obvious when yoh have a look. Nick.
There is a hole in the fan housing by where the flap bar goes in to the left engine cover. Will take a photo of mine tomorrow if you like.
Think @ghiahead's photo shows it a lot better than the one I just took! I had some issues with the right one in that my flap spring wouldn't stay under the little sticking out bit on the fan housing, so I bent a bit of metal the goes down round the end of the spring to stop it popping out.
This is what it should like this I hope? With the spring under that piece of the fan housing, the flap spring open until the cable for the thermostat is attached??
Had to twist the spring round once to give it abit of tension then it opened the flaps, I take it the thermostat closes the pulls the flaps shut, yeah?
The flaps should be closed when the engine is cold. So, when attaching the cable from the thermostat you need to pull the flaps to the closed position and hold it there while you attach and tighten the cable. When the engine warms up the thermostat expands, thus lengthing the cable and open the flaps.
Hi, yes I got your pm. I posted them on my way home from work. Just found out Google Chrome works on here.
Thanks to @ghiahead, still after the fan housing flaps of anyone can help please? I have one but I don't know if they're sided or not? I don't know if you can buy these or not? Thanks
