Took apart a box fan down to separating the motor. The bearings/bushings on both ends of the shaft are packed in with some dried out yellowish brown stuff. I assume is grease. Everywhere else online folks say just live shaft with a drop of oil. No one had an opinion on the grease part. Any suggestions?
Picture shows the brass cap, star goes inside the cap as does the silver bearing/bushing. The brown junk was packed all around in the inside of the brass cap once assembled. There is two of these cap assemblies on both ends of the motor.
