Cleaning a burner blower wheel is an all or nothing task because of the speed they spin. Furnace blowers will typically run around 1100 rpms. Burner blowers operate at 3,450 rpms Please let me know your feedback

    Probably the most neglected/missed part of pm's.
    Of course addressing why it's getting that dirty should be job 1.
    Would be nice if burner motors themselves had an exterior molex connector to make it very easy to pull the motor.
