 Does the air duct/fan shroud split apart? |

I'm still taking apart my new (to me) '76 2.0 for cleaning and I have the fan shroud laid bare with all screws removed. The edges all are free to separate.
There seems to be a pin in the middle of the body of the unit which is holding it together.  Do the halves separate or is it just a tease? |

It does split into two, there are alignment pins that hold it together, if all the fasteners have been removed, some careful prying should get it to separate.
Good luck Jeff |

Don't force it apart. Find all of the nuts and bolts holding the halves together. It may take some digging due to dirt and grease buildup.

Good luck Jeff I can only see the one pin. I'll double check to ensure all fasteners are removed. I'll use some wood wedges to try to separate the halves. gentle taps! |
