My accelator feels heavy! - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

Recently my car has been feeling like the accelator is heavier.. My belts were squeaking about two days ago, but i tightened them and also added some belt dressing.
could it be that my belts are too tight?
also, i can't even move my engine fan manually when the car is off, its too hard.
Please help me out.

I remember reading about this in an earlier thread, but i think it said something turning the distributor or something about 5 degrees or so... not sure... might wanna search for that thread...  i might be completely wrong....  <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/eh.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':eh:'>

the clutch fan is almost impossible to remove w/ the plastic things on covering the fan...

but what i did was, i took the plastic out, and unbolted 6? 10mm bolts on the fan, so the fan itself comes off, than got to the back and bolted the 4 10mm bolts that connects to the engine. voila done

Are you telling me to remove two of the 10mm bolts on the fan?
