Bilge blower lubrication

Post by TADTOOMUCH »

I have two of my bilge blowers that make a terrible racket until they get going. Sounds like a bearing might be going out or need lubrication. Being that they are pretty well sealed for spark protection, does anyone know if they can be lubricated? Probably need to replace these 30 year old guys but if they just need lube then maybe not.
