I broke a fan blade last week in a deep puddle in the mountains that I've crossed dozens of times before. This time for some reason it was a foot or so deeper. Afterwards it felt like I had a missing cylinder but in my inspection of the plugs and coils, i saw the broken blade. Must have broken when the water hit the spinning fan.
Unable to balance the fan blade, i was unwilling to drive until I replaced it. I ordered a new fan blade last week because no one local had one. So our family hauler was down until i got my replacement today.
This was not in my list of emergency parts I keep on hand. It's only about 50 or 60 dollars. Worth having an extra one in the garage if you go off road at all, even if you avoid deep water crossings as i do.
