Hi All
I noticed today that the viscous fan on my defender 200tdi had fell off and was wedged inside the cowling[no damage done].
I replaced the fan back onto its spindle but could find no way to tighten it down[ as the spindle and fan rotate together under pressure] .,or secure it in place.
So my question is how do you lock the fan in place,? And any ideas as to why it has come off in the first place.

My question is
 
I take it the 200tdi is the same as the 300tdi and a LH thread.
It really should be self tightening. Just screw it on and tap it with a fan spanner, it should not be coming off as long as everything is OK.

Cheers
