Hey, im in the Garage,

I need to replace my twin heat riser to a single, and im starting to take off all the parts required to remove the old one and slot in the new one.

Its a son of a bitch.

Do I have to remove the alternator and the oil filler to get to it?

Im up to that last part.

If so, whats the best way to go about getting it off, do i just remove the 4 bolts at the bottom holding it on? what about the fan?
How do I get that off?

Soooo many questions....

Thanks

oil filler no,usually you can undo the fan housing at either side and the band of the genny/alternator and lift it high enough to get it out
