I took the blower out of our 92 to replace it, and it appears that the blower cage is pressed on. I can see little, rusty, splines on the shaft, and no nut, nor threads for a nut. The replacement motor has a nut on the end to hold the cage on. I've hit the stud with PB Blaster and after sitting a while, tapped on it with a small hammer. No budge.

Is it really pressed on, and, if so, what's the trick for getting it off? Thanks.

There should be flat spots on the motor shaft to keep the bird cage from spinning, The only blower motors I've seen have a flange nut or a nut and lock washer.

Is the bird cage plastic or metal, if it's metal you could use heat to get it loosened up?
