Engine Fan pulley bolts have been broken off and would like to know how to get the fan off so I can take the pulley off and remove the threaded part of the bolts and put the pulley back on. Would like to know what type bolts are used to hold the pulley in place also.

The bolts are 8mm thread I believe, nothing really special. The hard part will be getting the fan off the pump. The tool to remove the fan uses the pulley bolts to hold it while removing the threaded fan. You may wind up removing the water pump to hold the shaft so you can get the fan off, I have had to take this road a few times. If you can get to the shaft behind the pulley and hold it, the fan will unthread giving you access to the bolts you need to fix
