  I'm sorry I wasn't clear.
The fan is a 4 bladed fan securely attached to the crankshaft as 
original.... but it, well, blows.
He said he's even re-installed it the other way around, and it 
still... you know...

If he drops a piece of paper into the engine bay between radiator and 
cylinder head, the piece of paper sticks to the engine side of the radiator.

Curiouser and curiouser. I've rounded up a used fan, for comparison 
or installation. I dunno... maybe the engine's running backwards?

That would really... you know...
