Rad shroud

[Barrington]

Hello.
How many bolts hold the radiator shroud? I’ve removed 2 from each side, then 2 more that hold the bottom and top half together. For the last half-hour I've been pulling and pushing but the blasted thing wont move!
Have I missed one, is there an easy method.
I'm the middle of changing all the belts. I thought it would take a couple of hours, now it's looking like a weekend job!
Bye

Hello

if you have an aircon cooler under the engine, its a bugg*r.

Unbolt the fan and wiggle it out - there is a bolt holding the shroud onto the bottom of the rad - it is in the centre bottom.

Taking the fan out you should be able to get to the bolt.

Thanks for the reply.
Yes, I do have the aircon cooler.
I'll give it a wiggle tomorrow!

you can get to it with a little ratchet and socket! But its tricky

This is why my shroud and viscous fan are in the shed. There's a bit more
room to reach things with the electric fan fitted, and no bottom hidden bolt.
