Heater problem
1988 Oldsmobile Cutlass Wheel Drive Type unknown Automatic 950000 miles
----------------------------------------------------------------
I have purchased a replacement motor for the blower and can't get the old one out. The alternator is in the way. Is there a trick to the removal or do I need to remove the alternator.

can you disconnect the front motor mounts by the radiator and pull it forward and try that way it will be a bit tight but you should be able to clear it
