Also the engine has no power so I know there is something wrong... > As I previously wrote: >If >the >car goes into "limp" mode (IE major loss of power and performance), then you >should not drive it, It goes to a very save air:fuel ratio and pulls a ton of timing to prevent damage to the motor, it needs to be looked at ASAP, if the truck's under warranty I'd take it back and tell them it was my only vehicle and I needed it back right away. If they give you a hassle then explain the reason you bought a new vehicle was reliability and all that stuff, do whatever you can it should be fixed in a timely manner if its warranty work especially.

The Chilton's manual said it was removed > clockwise and was wrong. I later realized the fan shroud said it was right > hand threads. The best indicator I've found for which way it needs to go is to follow the belt routing; whichever way the pump turns the opposite rotation is needed to remove it. When the vehicle is new the fan shroud should tell you which way it goes, but with a used vehicle you never know if it's been wrecked or not and if it has the fan shroud may have been replaced out of another vehicle that did not have that thread, also looking at the threads of the replacement part may help but you don't know if you have the right part or not at that point. You can thank serpentine belts for this confusion; with V-belts everything rotated in the same direction as the engine but with the serpentine belts devices can be rotated in either direction. (You can imagine the diagnostic nightmare when a counter clockwise turning water pump is installed on a vehicle that should have a clockwise turning water pump!)
