So its the middle of winter (I hate snow, salt, rust), my 928 is my daily driver and I have no heat. Well, I do have heat but only the kind that seeps from the engine because when I turn the fan on to get it blowing and the motor makes this awfully loud buzzing/grinding/screeching noise. It smells a bit like burn rubber when it work for its one minute periods so I'm thinking the blower is no good.
First, where is the blower located. I can't seem to find it in my manual. Second, is there anyway to solve the problem by oiling the motor?? Thirdly, where would I buy one if I needed it. I cheched 928 specialist and I couldn't find it, but I probably should have checked with international. Thanks in advance

I bought a used one off a fellow lister, nice and smooth now. Or call 928 Intl for a used one. My old one was shot, very loud and squeeky. I don't see a way to oil it while it is installed.
