Hello again. I just received my combustion blower. Speedy service! Now I have a quick question. I noticed that my old combustion blower, has what looks like silicone, sealing the blower to the furnace and fresh air tube. Is this a special silicone? Also, are these blowers oiless? Mine is making a no...

Well, I wired it like I thought it should go and the compressor wouldnt start. So it must be wired right.

But whats odd is after it sat for a half hour while I posted this, It started right up with no groan.

Lemme guess, its going out on me?

I have a Coleman QED2 condenser. Lately when t gets hot outside, I hear the fan motor kick on, then 2-3 seconds later the compressor kicks on with a loud groaning sound. I replaced the capacitors to the compressor last week. I'm not sure if they were wired right in the first place. Hoping it will fi...

I had a Colman furnace replaced last year with a Nor dyne unit. I put the A-coil from the Coleman into the nor dyne. Had the system recharged. The a/c works great. My problem seems to be that the a-coil pan isn't draining properly. I'm getting water on the front side of the furnace. When I had the c...

Woo Hoo!! Took the new motor and old motor back to supply house. Told a 3rd guy what was going on. He kept saying it was a furnace problem. After explaining that the old motor worked fine and that it was noisy, he asked a 4Th guy. Problem was the original motor had a capacitor. The new one didn't. I...

Well, I just put my old motor back in. Ran it for 15 minutes on the house fan. Shut it off, and its barely warm. Seems to blow harder too. Ran a heat cycle. Went from 68 to 72. Let it sit for 2-3 min after it shut off. Motor barely warm, no heat coming off from of furnace either. SO I'm guessing I w...

Thanks for the info tipstah. My insulation is still secure. So that isn't my problem. I called the place I bought the replacement motor from and told them about the motor temps. After running the house fan for about 10-15 minutes, you couldn't touch the motor. They had me bring it back for a replace...

I figured out the motor was bad. Put a screwdriver to the case to listen, and sure enough it was humming/buzzing. I replaced it with a Fasco D158 motor from my local furnace store. They said it was a direct replacement. I installed the motor, and now its so quiet you almost cant hear it running. But...

Thanks for the fast reply. I should have mentioned in the first post that it is a used furnace. I got it from a neighbor who had the furnace installed Aug 05 then May 07 moved and had the home torn down. Ive had the furnace since May 07. I had it installed by a local MB repair place. So the only war...

I had my new furnace installed over the weekend. Works great! Doesn't seem to run as long as the old one. But one thing driving me nuts is how loud it is. When the main blower comes on it hums/buzzes pretty loud. Not like a bearing/bushing noise. If I push on the squirrel cage housing, some of the n...

Would you guys happen to carry the acoil cabinet for this furnace? Along with the matching door? Furnace face is white.

Its a Nordyne M1MB 077A AW.

Sounds like proof to me. I called a Nordyne dealer after I read your reply. Said it couldnt be done and I should buy a new furnace from, who else, them.

No hood wink felt here

Thanks a million again!!

Thanks for the detailed and quick reply. I will be having a pro install it. Its kind of intimidating to me. I was thinking that you couldnt overfire it either, but I cant see the furnace having a bigger heat exchanger in it since the one it has fills the entire cabinet. Thanks again for your help! M...

As luck would have it, my old Coleman furnace decided it had enough here and cracked the heat exchanger. On the other side, I got my hands on a Nordyne. I was told the unit was 2-3 years old. It looks brand new. The question I have is this. The coleman was rated at 95k btu in, 72k btu out. The nordy...

Could it be a capacitor?
