I can't figure out how to disconnect the two small hoses that go to the EVAP canister. I've never seen these connectors before and I'm afraid of breaking them. I'm attaching a pic of the connectors. My phone doesn't have auto-focus, so that's the best I can get at the moment.

the problem i got is the clutch fans are different and the parts place here wants over 50.00 bucks for just the clutch for the fan.What i was going to do is replace the clutch fan with a electric fan but with a S10 it has a 14inch tall radiator.

What my question is: can i use a 12 inch universal cooling fan and be safe where it won't burn my newly installed engine?

The one i was going to get is a 12 inch that straps to my radiator where it won't move.The tie straps go threw my radiator like zip ties and i just cut the end off and be done with it. Then wire it to a relay where it will come on when it needs too.

So will i be safe or sorry if i install one of these universal fans on my truck?

Any advice will be greatly appreciated ]]> Chevy S10 Forum (GMC Sonoma) 85 S10 Man http://www.gmtruckclub.com/forum/showthread.php/122439-universal-cooling-fan-Question 99 s10 fuel problem http://www.gmtruckclub.com/forum/showthread.php/122024-99-s10-fuel-problem?goto=newpost Tue, 30 Apr 2013 14:32:46 GMT I have a 99 s10 with a 2.2L.

Was searching for Engine R&R, replacement and various other ways of putting it.
No joy.
What is the accepted method for putting the engine back in the truck? Engine and tranny together, or separate?

The engine was shipped with everything still on it, including the complete wiring harness, and
everything still connected to it, including the shift module. Is there a best practices way to sling
the engine/engine transmission for the trip back in? Will I need to remove the radiator support to do so?
The fan is still mounted up, along with the induction clear out to the cold air intake. Really complete!
This is a 1999 S-10 2 wheel drive standard cab pickup. 4.3W going in the place of the 4.3X (Bad rod and crank.)
