I have a  Razor heater in the garage and the small fan motor that blows air
over the  heat exchanger has gone walk-about. It is a 115 volt 1550 RPM 
motor
that  draws 1.2 amps, four 1/8 inch mounting screws 2 inches apart - a 
square  -
on the drive face for mounting and a 3/16 inch diameter by 3 1/2 inch  long
shaft for the fan blade.

I can provide all of the A. O. Smith  motor plate details if that would 
help.

A quick check at Surplus Center  and McMaster did not come close to what I
needed.

Any thoughts on  where I should look next? A recommendation for a 'small
electric motor  vendor' on the web?

Thanks

Have you tried a Toro blower and motor; they're so potent that they're  
being used for small superchargers.
