Hi, new member here. I recently received an old buck stove (27000). The motor makes a loud racket when it is turned on. So, I plan on getting it repaired/replaced. However, I am having difficulty getting the fan removed. I have removed the small allen bit portion, but the darn thing won't come off. I've sprayed it with wd40 and pbblaster with no luck. Can anyone give me tips on how to remove this thing? Thanks in advance ..
 
I assume this is a Buck with the motor in the rear.

You can get that motor in a number of places, like:

http://www.woodmanspartsplus.com/
http://www.stovepartsunlimited.com/

I assume the years of heating have somewhat fused those two parts together. First thing is to consider whether you want to bother or just replace both. If you are going to replace just the motor, then I would remove it from the stove body and use various methods (hammer, etc.) to induce a lot of vibration...to free it up.
