I have an Allis Chalmers 7040 and the fan is slightly loose. Do I just tighten up the bolts holding it on or is there a bushing that needs to be replaced?

Like Mack says......I suppose there is a very slim chance it could just be bolts, but unlikely.

You might want to change the thermostats while it is drained down so you know there won't be an issue later

Good luck getting the aluminum fan spacer off the nose of the water pump hub.
