Don't forget to tell him Frank that he can keep that new fan motor from
seizing up and keep it well lubed by spraying oil into the heater intake
vent .

I tried this fix once suggested By Frank.
 Other than blowing oil all over the rugs, and becaue I also had the
defroster's on,  I lubed the inside of my glass a bit.
The used I installed motor has never locked up again.

The oil film also helps keep my windsheild from fogging up in the winter
so I spray lubed in the fall with bar oil.

This was a great idea Frank,
I'm glad you thought of it,
And glad it itis in the archives to reference to.

I have two questions;
Should I remove the grill before spraying the bar oil into the heater
intake vent, or just leave it on?
And how often do you think I should remove the defroster vents to clean
the lint out?

Thanks ,
