After drilling and oiling, put a dab of sealant there to seal it up.
This temp fix can make your blower motor last at least (up to) 5 more years, maybe longer.

Mine has just started whining. This is a procedure I'll need to perform soon. What oil have you guys been using?

Give it a little cheese with the "whine"!! lol
Seriously though the new motors arent very expensive and well worth the money to keep from hearing the whine!

In my 67 GMC W/O air I fixed mine by grabbing a Caddie (not sure which year) W/air from the junk yard- On defrost it will roll ur hair back on you head.

Any parts store, and price can range from 25 - 40 bucks. Get one for an A/C equipped truck, they put out more air.

It is either the front or rear bushing in the motor. Just replace it. Easy fix...
