What ive just noticed in building tamiyas willys jeep is...when you put the engine fan on, then the top part that has the radiator top on i t, the fan blades dont clear the radiator line.
How would one correct this? cause im doing a dio with the hood open on it.

thanks all for any help you could give me at this point.

Hi Pat,

Do you mean part A-17 cannot be put in the correct position? Just check again, the blade should not be over the radiator box (A-19) top edge. Is it possible the fan and engine block parts are out of position?

Good luck,
Paul

Hey Paul ! the fan blade looks like it would hit the radiator hose( if it were real and truning). but im just going to re route that radiator hose more to the left side of the radiator top, if that makes sense. it may not be correct, but what the hell. Im adding extras in the engine also. ill post some pics shortly
