Complete utter waste of time. For the cost of a brand new one, from my _Vanagon Items Forsale_ (http://members.aol.com/Fkc43/sales.htm) webpage > Blower fan and motor, front heater, 8100, 251 819 015 - $58.75 CND, plus the time and trouble to get in there why would you even "THINK" about trying to repair the old motor ? Go read the archives on this subject and you will find a huge amount of useful information. Just trying to save you from postponed grief !
