Getting my York insert ready for winter. Things are going well except the manual says there are two oil ports on the room fan and I'll be damned if I can find them. Anyone know where they are?

Thanks. I saw those openings but wasn't sure.
Took both fans apart and cleaned. They were a mess!
Just about ready to go.
Trying Barefoot for the first time - got a good deal last spring.

Typically, those holes have little yellow plugs pushed into them to keep out dust/dirt. You might want to put a very small blob of Hi-temp silicone over them that can be pulled off at a later time when you want to lube the motor again (during your 1 - 1 1/2 ton cleaning). Remember to use 20w oil..... 3 in 1 in the Blue can (or in the red can if that's all you have) will work just fine.
As for the Barefoots, I think you'll be very happy you bought them.....I got 2 tons myself.
