Blower motor making weird noises

My 84 f250 has been making weird noises whenever I turn on my heater. Its a very loud squeaking/moaning noise that usually happens when you first turn the heat on, but it goes away eventually on its own or if I punch the pass. side fender it will stop. Why does it do that? Is that normal?

Either junk in the duct, or the bushings are dry in the blower motor.

dismount the blower motor and check the insides for build-up, if it is free of deposits try applying recommended lubricant.

On an '84 it has probably seen better days. Might be best to swap out for a new one.

When I got it I took the blower out because it didnt work at all, but the housing was pretty clean, but It probably needs some lube. Where do you put the lube and what kind is the best?

You may have to take it apart to lube the bushings. Should last for another 20 years if you do it though.
