53squirrelcage.jpg A squirrel chewed thru the squirrel cage, and no one has a direct-replacement plastic one, so I had to use this $16 metal one from NAPA or O'Reilly (I forget now).

The motor was very hard-to-turn, so I removed it, sprayed penetrating oil into the vent hose hole, and let it soak into the lower bushing overnight.  Then I flipped it, added more oil, and let it soak into the front bushing.  It freed up, so I chased that with engine oil, and the motor worked for another ~2 years.  Eventually, I replaced it with a new Siemens motor.
