1997 Mercedes Benz 300d Two Wheel Drive Automatic

hey I wanted to know does the fan clutch for a 1997 mercedes E300D have a reverse thread. If not is it right threaded or left. I am having a hard time trying to get it off and I ould like to know which way I need to go without strippeing the threads if I havent already done so.

Hi there,

If you just add this question to the the thread of your last one, the mod who was helping you will get a direct note to check this out, he will already have the correct car found on his data base, and he should be able to check this ASAP, if not re post here an I will look into it for you a bit further.
