TD 42 Viscous replacement

[ricster]

Anyone replaced the viscous fan on a 4.2TD motor yet??

Mine has been seized solid for ....ummmm..... well.... for a loooong time, and I keep saying that I will change it, but Nissan wanted something like R 4000.00 odd for just a viscous...... not acceptable

Has anyone used Auto Cooling Solutions in the Cape for a viscous unit before? I've heard only good things about their fan blades.... but never heard anything about the viscous units.

Ricster you can also try Richard at Autofans in Cape Town. He was able to help me earlier this year.

Good luck
