ABSTRACT:
A dual drive radiator fan and coolant pump system for a liquid-cooled reciprocating internal combustion engine includes a coolant pump with an impeller shaft driven by a first drive extending between the engine's crankshaft and a pump pulley and hub mounted upon the impeller shaft. A second drive extends between the crankshaft and a fan hub journaled upon the pump hub, so that the coolant pump and fan hub are driven independently.
