hey i started to notice that the passanger side radiator fan is a bit loose and makes a awful noise once the fans turn on is there anyway to tighten it also seems like it has trouble turning as when i turn it manualy it seems a bit rough ....
also my battery seems to be draining and would go dead after a day of not starting i suspect it has something to do with my starter motor as it has been gradually getting worse ( would need to turn key more then once to start car on occasion ) the car alsoo seems to sit on 12v or sometimes just below it (its also a new battery )
any help would be greatly appreicated

Not too sure about the fans mate.

CHRISTIANITY: The belief that a cosmic Jewish Zombie who was his own father can make you live forever if you symbolically eat his flesh and telepathically tell him you accept him as your master, so he can remove an evil force from your soul that is present in humanity because a rib-woman was convinced by a talking snake to eat from a magical tree...
