Foxbody Blower Motor Housing Removal - Cleaning out the RATS NEST - Episode 6

Mice or Rats at one time lived in the cowl and made their way into the hvac's blower motor housing on the '79 Mustang.
This video shows how easy it is to remove, inspect or replace and reinstall the blower motor assembly. If you need to replace the impeller, blower motor, or in my case, just clean out debris. This video shows how easy it is.

Thanks for the tutorial! Had the exact same problem in my '83 GLX 5.0. Just pulled the blower motor today and full of nest. Bought the metal fan from LMR, can't wait to have a functioning HVAC again.

Thank you for this... found the blockage. Air is blowing again! Subscribed!

Great tutorial! I'm going to clean out the assembly on the 81' Cobra this weekend. I have a new blower motor but it just doesn't blow very hard. I bet it's full of rats nest just like yours was. Nobody has the fox bodys around here though...a spray bottle with some listerine mix usually takes care of smells...that's what they use to treat fire damaged houses... Thanks for the info!

I love this car!!!!!

After seeing the condition of yours, I think a removal and cleaning is instore for mine before even turning it on. Car sat for many years and I know mice were inside my interior. Cowl was not bad but this definitely needs to be done! Thanks for the vid!

Good tips, also for the blower motor, think about taking them apart and cleaning up and well. Super easy to do and it may save you from buying new.

Thanks man! This is helpful. My 83 when I put the fan past low. It squeals load. Not sure if it is the motor or fan or both.
