Hi, I'm new to the board and need some help.I have a Carrier Crusader gas furnace Model #58DHC075. When the draft inducer comes on it is making a grinding sound, I'munsure if its a motorbearing or the blade inside. I can't seem to figure out howto remove this assembly. I removed the 3 screws holding the motor on and the 3 underneath that. Am I missing something or is this thing just stuck on by the gasket? Any help would be appreciated, Thank you.

It's probably the squirrel cage rubbing on startup.
The gasket is probably what's holding it. It will probably tear when removed.


How does the heat exchanger look on that 24 year old furnace?
