Forest,

If you can, buy a couple of fan motors; one as a spare. A service tech @ Newell told me that the reason the motors burn up is because they need oil and it is a pain to oil the motors annually. As long as they are oiled they won't fail.

It was funny; the same 2 AC units would burn condensor fan motors (the front & the middle) the bedroom AC ran for 8 years with no trouble! Go figure! That kind of shoots the "oil every year theroy" to pot! Who knows! I'm just repeating what I was told.
