My 'new' 96 Sport has a squeak in the aux fan, when I turn it by hand. (I'm a poet and don't know it... :laugh3 It barely has 60K on it, and shouldn't need replacement with this low mileage; is there a way to lube the bearings on these things?
Thanks,
ROE

If you can get it apart, some white lithium grease should do the trick.

Thanks for the reply, OldMan. There's no problem getting it apart, now getting it back together is another story.....

I have a spray can of lithium grease that I'll try.

Be careful with the grease, to much in the wrong place will ruin the motor.
