The bearings wear out on those blowers like a cheap pair of underwear. When you replace the bearings be prepared to see significant wear on the motor shaft also. We used to keep a backup ready to go. This will cause you to amp up higher than normal

These ovens maintain good profiling as long as you stay on top of maintenance. I had 4 150's and 1 125. The biggest headache is keep the plenums cleaned (very messy). Also the blower motors have been replaced a few times on them as well. If I were yo
