Lubricating engine heater blower
The blower squeaks so I think I will remove and lubricate this weekend. Where exactly should I squirt the oil? Is their a lubrication hole like house heater fans have? Can I just spray the whole inside with dielectric grease or should I try to get turbine oil right into the shaft bearings?

they're just about worn out when they squeel, so you might gain a little time. like week or so. the shaft rides in bushings, so you would have to pull the fan off and pull the armature out of the housing to get at both bushings.

Do a search about blower motor replacement and you will find various articles about replacement. The original motor is no longer made and if you can find one probably $250.00. The system can be converted to a motor available from Dayton for under $50.00 total. You have to take the complete system apart to lube anyway you might as well replace.
