    What are the symptoms of a blower motor needing oil
    I have a ruud furnace and just found out that I have a port for oil on the motor. Right now the mortor will not run but once I manually spin the blades it will run but very slowly. Could this be an indication of the oil being low or no oil at all? By the way ihave replaced the run capacitor to no avail.

    Thanks
