nope.

use the strap wrench on the pulley and the other wrench on the fan clutch.

it is a pain in th *** to get off.

it helps if you have an extra person.

if you try heating it right where it meets the pulley that may help.

on the strap you turn it to the right and the wrench to the left.

watch that radiator or take it out.

i do not know what you are asking.

the only answer is that you need to replace the water pump.

if the bearing is bad that is the only solution.
