Default A Noisy Whirlpool in Window A/C

Most likely the fan blade is hitting the fan shroud.

It's 4:45 am here with a temp of 67F outside. I started it.
It puts out cold
air immediately, and the noise. The noise sounds like that
produced by a
bicycle with a piece of stiff cardboard inserted into a
spoked wheel. It's
the sort of noise kids used to do with bicycles to make them
sound like a
motorcycle or a motor. Turn it off and it sounds like such a
bicycle slowing
down. There's got to be something stuck in the fan. Later
this morning,
when I can get some help pulling the a/c out of the window,
I'll examine it
by opening it up.
