My blower up and died on me out of the blue. Where is the best place (cheapest) to find a replacement?

Not West Marine, but they have them. Look for the 3 inch size.

Thanks T. and all you BigMers. Good news. After removing the blower, I found a piece of plastic in the chamber. Pulled it out, tested the blower, and got lucky. It has new life. "for now" LOL. Capt. T, call me tomorrow and let me know if we're working on the Supra.

Are these servicable at all, mine is kinda squeely sounding and a drop of oil in just the right place could do wonders if it is made such that this can be done.
