Hello
The final fix was to bang the crimp connections on the motor housing with a hammer and nail set!
So there are 3 fixes
1. Change the Lytherm Convection Blower Flange gasket to either Red Rubber (195 Deg F) or High Temp Silicone Orange Rubber (525 Deg F) Since the flange gets only 104 Deg F on the highest heat level either will work.
That reduces vibration and insulates against transmitting stove heat to the blower.
2. Tighten the shock mountings that bolt the Fasco motor to the Squirrel Cage (3 Screws with red rubber washers)
3. Tighten the black motor housing the the grey motor frame by hitting the crimps with a hammer and nail set!
See video of US Stove 5660 convection blower issues.
