Default Squeaky Furnace

I started noticing a really bad squeaky sound coming from the
furnace. It usually happens right away when it kicks on, then goes
away after it has run for a while (but sometimes it will start at
arbitrary times).

I assume I need to oil something but I'm not sure what and what type
of oil to use.

Any suggestions?

Thanks,
Dan

When my last furnace started "squeaking"
it was caused by the blower
squirrel cage, literally coming apart at
the welds. It started like a
sizzling/squeaking sound, but then,
after some time, it got very loud and
annoying. I was able to replace the
blower squirrel cage to fix the
problem.
