I have a 2004 Saturn ION with the 2.2 L engine. I need ANY help I can get on removal of the cooling fan. It looks as if the A/C condenser may need to be removed to get to the coolant fan housing. I can't believe I have to open the A/C system and move A/C lines To get to the coolant fan. I need help.
