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