Yes, fixing those loose bolts behind the fan can be down on the side of the road or a parking lot without taking the engine out of the car. Did that to Jill’s Type 34 Ghia on the drive to the Fairport, NY Invasion back in 2014. WE also did it to one of Keith’s cars on the way to one of the west coast Invasion….maybe Oregon in 2006? Keith, do you remember which one?
While it can be done in the car, I think it would be much easier to pull the engine and do it outside of the car if you home in your garage.
