I have a 1999 Chevy Astro. I am trying to replace the water pump. Can you tell me how to remove the fan clutch from the water pump?

Answer
Hi Greg, You need a special tool for this. Yes you can't unscrew it anymore. They always make me buy more tools when they change these cars every year. Here is what it looks like...http://www.toolsource.com/ost/product.asp?sourceid=&dept%5Fid=500&pf%5Fid=97534&mscssid=GAV74P527ASF9JQ3JBX04P5GFMFSE30D

If you go to the auto parts store and ask them for one they should have it. It cost around $50.

Have a Great Holiday
