Other than removing the center nut holding the fan blades, is there any way to get inside this blower motor to repair or lubricate this motor from my 1971, or are these motors factory sealed?
It whines & squeals inside when it's run at medium-high speeds. I'd hate to replace the blower motor with another good used one (presuming I can find one), but I may be forced to if I cannot fix this. Has anyone had success on these? Thanks, Ken   |

That is not so bad. Really! Moisture has gotten in and did a little corrosion. Wire / sand off the obvious crud. Clean out the inside of the housing. Oil the bearings and reassemble. I doubt the bearing is even worn Your problem looks like age and some crud. Use a light oil and not WD40
