A couple of bolts sheared of allowing the radiator fan and pulley to go there seperate ways. It's 6 o'clock on a Tuesday night. Does anyone know of a cross reference to another car that has the same fan blade or is it Volvo specific?

Thanks,

Loose Moose

    Looks like be headed to the junk yard before work in the morning. Car has to be driven in stop and go traffic around Nashville. And the traffic here is nothing but stop and go and wait.

    I've never had any problem with the stock set up. I have seen the electric fan, but I'm not really sure what benefit I would gain. I guess if the ole girl was anything more than stock I might. Maybe one day. Just doing my best to keep her running these days.

    Thank you for your help guys.

    If you just lost the blade and the pulley is still in place and the radiator is undamaged,
    as long as you don't let the car idle but keep driving, especially over about 30 mph
    you can get along fine without the fan.

    The fan is a Volvo specific part. Although more work is involved consider converting to an Electric fan assembly from a 940, it bolts right up to the radiator... wiring required.
