    Confortmaker furnace blower rattle
    I Have A Comfortmaker 50K BTU furnace model number GNJ050N12C1.
    There is a slight rattle when the blower motor goes on. When I hold the blower motor (fasco 7021-9335) the rattle stops. I tightened the 3 nuts on the blower motor mount that attaches the motor, but that does not seem to help. What could be the problem? There are 3 rubber grommets that are attached to the bots, could they be worn? Or is it a motor problem and does the motor need any lubrication?
    Thanks
