I'm real bad to take a needle, like people take shots with, and poke a small hole in and oil fans that way. I also do that to those expensive high speed bearings on my riding lawn mowers. I've had bearings last for decades that way. It is amazing what just a tiny bit of added oil will do. ;-) Dale :-) :-)
