1998 ford escort wagon cooling fan

[pudman]

1998 escort wagon. 133,000 miles. Cooling fan works good and comes on when it should, but the bearings are shot. Can I replace the bearings or do I need to replace the whole unit?

You will have to replace the cooling fan motor. Not sure if you can try some 3 in 1 oil to quiet it.

Is there a local electric motor rebuilder in your area? If so, they could match it up or rebuild your old one.
