Ok so i finally got the fan and clutch of the water pump. I ended up taking it to a friends body shop about a mile away from my house. What took me a week with no progress he did in 5 minutes. Got my new water pump on the engine with the right bolts and rtv and everything. Got the fan attached to the pump and Loctite on the threads. Me and my brother cranked on it as hard as we could with a ratchet strap around the pulley and the wrenches from advance auto. I am just worried that its gonna fly off when i shut down. How do i know if its tight enough without it being too late? My brother is a strong guy and he cranked with all his strength. I have let the loctite cure for 24 hours. Is this enough?
