3-IN-ONE Motor Oil, 3 OZ [24-PACK]

This oil works great for those jobs that require a long lasting presence. The can is great for just adding a drop of oil to the little space where it is needed. I have a little problem getting the cap off. I keep one of these in the garage and in my shed for quick access and usage.

Good as a back up lubricant

As some other reviewers have mentioned, it is important to realize that this is NOT the stereotypical 3-IN-ONE oil that has been used for eons around the house. That other oil was designed as a light household oil and it worked good for those applications. See here:

One of my pc case fan had terrible clicking noise on ball bear. Had two drops there and the noise is gone after minutes. So it works with small motors..

Ive always seen this with my gramma and her sewing machine. I had some water pumps that works outside the fish tank so I always use this to oil certain parts that needs it...

Used this to lubricate a small fan and get it working properly again. Worked wonderfully for that purpose.

One of the things that causes many electric motors to fail is those sleeve bearings that dry out after long use and then require costly repair. Oddly enough, many motors have a wick type arrangement that if kept oiled will wick that oil into the bearing area and help the motor las for many(!) years. As others have noted, detergent oil and WD-40 tend to leave debris in the bearing area and cause wear. This oil doesnt have that trait. Final note: If a beraing runs dry, the rotating shaft will tend to smear the metal of the sleeve bearing and thereby block the channels for the oil to wick through the sintered bearing material. This means the only oil that gets to the bearing will be that which you apply directly (and often !) and not from the wicking material. Look up what is meant by sintering. Tha sleeve material only LOOKS solid!

I have a Honeywell HT-900 fan that I use 12+ hours a day. It started to slow down due to dust build-up. I cleaned out the dust and applied a few drops of this 3-IN-ONE Motor Oil and it runs almost like new again. I have another tower fan that needs some love as well. 3 oz is plenty to last a while for normal house use. NOTE: Someone mentioned to cut above the line. I highly recommend you follow this persons advice.

End of story, used to oil my HVAC blower motor as most techs just stand their and do nothing but have no problem taking 300 bucks, even though their supposed to take blower apart. Their lazy cause either their new hires or just plain old lazy. This is for the blower motors with no oil ports where you must basically take apart to get to bearing filter elements cause just spraying oil on everything is not the proper way and can shorten motor life expectancy.
