If you are going at your E Series with the 7.3 to change your fan clutch, I hope this video gives you some tips that you can use to make yours go easier than mine did. Read the comments to pick up some tips that I didn’t know… like there is an actual tool made to reach the nut and I was using the older version straight tool. If I’d only known 🙂

My name is David and with my dog Lefty we live full time in our ambulance conversion RV. I made this change to my life and you can too! Like, subscribe and comment! Lefty would appreciate it – he wants the adventures to keep coming!
The Campulance is a 2002 Ford E450 Marque Commando 164 Class III ambulance powered by the Ford 7.3l Powerstroke turbo diesel engine and a 4 speed 4R100 transmission. Lefty is a 68lb American Staffordshire Terrier (best I can tell) that came from the Verona Street Animal Shelter (https://www.vsas.org/) in March 2014 at the age of 9 months. We have been living full time in the campulance since July 2019. #ambulancelife #vanlife #staffordshireterrier

good . Lefty is on it. Ok, I was wondering, how tight do you have to make the new fan,?? Do you have to use the other tool to tighten it?? But glad you got it off.
My son had a dog who went nuts over cardboard boxes and would rip them into little pieces. Lefty really seems to enjoy being at your moms.
I used to have a supervisor like Lefty. Bark orders first thing in the morning then go sleep in his office.
I’m happy for your excitement 😂 projects can be a pain but you’re taking it slow, taking notes. I look forward to seeing the final finish. Love Lefty’s supervisor mode 😃
It’s good when the supervisor leaves or goes to sleep…then you can get some work done.
A mom lives for the moment their son comes running into the house yelling "I did it! I did it!"
The first time I took off a fan clutch on a van it took me a week. Youare right. You do not have the right tool. The one for the van curves and recesses back into the fan on to the nut. The wrench you have is straight, for the F series. I felt the same way the first time I got it off. Just spin it back on and don't tighten it and it will be easy to get off next time.
Good day it appears.
glad you and lefty made it home safe and are regrouping. i know it was rough, but are you two going to head out on the road again this season or just take a good long breather?
Older Vehicles didn't have a fan clutch, but they probably didn't warm up as fast. Your Heat probably works faster when that clutch works.
Hard work thanks much 😢
You would make a great mechanic on the road while traveling on the road Dave. 🙂
Block heater!!!! 😆 I am from Boston and I even thought you said "BLACK" heater!!!! Too 😄 funny!
Lefty is the cutest boy on Youtube. Thanks Dave
Great job dave. 👍👍

I loved the opening to this vlog. Leftys so cute eating his outdoor salad bar! My Mr. Annie used to do the same. Especially right after the rain. The thick blade grass apparently is a favorite of the Staffies. And the muskrat adventure, darling! I don't think I've ever seen one. That I recall anyway. And then him opening up the box was just a kick. Hilarious! 💛 And this whole radiator thing brought back a real bad memory of mine. I have an old Jeep Grand Cherokee SUV and I had to have the same thing done to my radiator. Luckily I had a Friend to call on to help do it for me. I just bought the parts and then he did all the work on the repair. I got to do his backyard trimming and watering. Cleaned his patio off really well too, then made him dinner in return. I definitely got the better end of the stick! Oh, my radiator still works great 5 yrs later too. I figured you'd get it fixed properly David. You're very mechanically smart. Smart overall. I always enjoy the mechanical tips on your channel. But of course Lefty is my favorite. 🐾💞. His supervisory skills are impeccable. 😅. When he started barking and wouldn't stop it reminded me of a supervisor I used to have..😂

man, that fan IS suprisingly big!
Nice going spotting that block heater wire short. I'm surprised that sucker didn't start a fire for the previous owner.
