Well I'm getting the engine accessories ready for powder coating and wanted to separate the fan shroud so the process can be applied to the interior and exterior of the two shroud halves. Problem is now that all the bolts and screws are out, I can't seem to spit the two halves. I can easily get a screw-driver blade all around the circumference but the two halves just won't separate. Is there a trick..? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)
 Thanks. |

Double check for any other screws. Spray a liberal amount of PB Blaster (or = penetrating fluid) all around the perimeter seams and try again in a day or two. Rust can cause the dowel pins to stick pretty good.
I've been down the same road before, and having the same issue with the screws on my wife's 71 fan housing right now. |
