[DeTomaso] Blower motor replacement

[Jim Gray]

Jack,

I was able to pull the motor out with the impellers attached.  While I haven't 
cleaned up the assembly it appears the motor is a god old USA item.  Does this 
mean the thing has already been replaced at some time?

The label says Genair, made in USA.

Did you release the squirrel-cage impeller setscrew from the motor shaft, so the 
motor can be pulled out of the way, leaving the impeller inside? The impeller 
blades are extremely fragile so you're right in not trying to force them, but 
first, get the motor out of there. My blower housings were not cemented in 
place, but I suppose anything's possible. Good luck, Jim- J DeRyke
