I have been working (in my "free" time) to resurrect a Case 310G diesel dozer for just about a year now. I was finally ready to fire it up last weekend. I cranked and cranked and thought I would kill the batteries. But finally, the dozer started. It was a short-lived success however... as coolant poured from the front of the dozer. In hind site, I should have checked the clearances between the radiator frame and the fan blade. One of the fan blades contacted the bottom of the radiator frame/reservoir, curled and then proceeded to gouge a trough in the radiator cooling fins. I will get the radiator re-cored but the fan blade is so mangled, I don't think it can be repaired. I've been searching for a replacement fan blade with no luck. Can someone offer me any assistance in finding a source?
