Apparently they have not made stoves since the 80's...
Only thing worthwhile I found was this.

If the motor on the blower just blew could try replacing just the motor itself and not the whole blower too. I am doing that w/my pellet stove auger, tring to just replace the motor as the whole assembly is still good.
Good luck to you.

Can you post a couple pictures of the blower and blower assembly, maybe with a tape measure in them?

These were all stock blowers - I'll bet you can walk into your local Graingers and find a replacement......
Our store sold Gold Marc, and one of our forum users has one...an insert. I don't remember that exact model you have - we sold mostly the insert and maybe a couple of their Prospector freestanders.

thank you all for the input, it gives me hope that information is avalible. i will try to get a picture of the blower assembly and the stove up so they can be seen. last winter was the first time i used the stove as well as when i found the blower motor was no good. the only moter i had with the same shaft diamiter was off an old metal desk to fan so i stuck that on there. my idea would have work perfectly IF the motor spun in the correct direction. it did not. i couldnt reverse the polarity of the motor either due to the wiring design. i must say i am quite impressed with this stoves performance all else aside. it is a replacement for a front loading qadra fire wich i feel is really not a good stove (a real pain in the keister to get going and controll). if anyone can diect me to a site that has info on the history of the gold marc company that would be appreciated as well, i like to know the history of things i own. thanks again to all.
Now there is a first. A Quad dumpstered for a Gold Marc.
Bet Quadrafire won't be using that in any ads. :lol:
