Fan blade on Dart broke today

I was thinking that the fan was slightly bent at one time, the water pump was bad, or the fan was just fatigued by constant high revs.....
I'll bet your water pump is toast now too if it wasn't before.
Yes, i agree that you were very lucky that it wasn't worse!
Just thinking/typing out loud.........

I grabbed the fan that was left and I could not wiggle it on the water pump or move the shaft. Doesn't matter though. That water pump is staying on the motor, the new motor already has a water pump on it. I think I will drive down yoday and take off the rest of the blades and check it out.
