Get uner the car.. look up just forward of the firewall... you will see a "flapper" about 2 inches in diameter coming out of the firwall. Reach INSIDE this with your fingers.. about 3 inches up.. you will feel a small rubber nipple.. sqeeze this.. and about 2 gallons of slime and water will run down your arm.. but the swooshing will stop.. and you will save your $130 fan motor too... Good luck !! This repair takes about 3 minutes.. I did by pulling the front wheels onto a curb... however, the fan moter change takes about 6 hours.
