I was told by an air-conditioner technician that Turbine oil was recommended for use in the small fans used in air-conditioners, being that it is very light.
Can anyone give an opinion about this oil?

I've read some of the answers and wanted to add my two cents. We use marvel
mystery oil which seems ok so far. I was thinking about using silicon based
gun oil though

Hi all,
The fan in my 547 was running slow and taking a long time to run up to
speed. I took it apart to find the bearings all gummed up with sticky greasy
old oil. I've washed it all out with an appropriate solvent and now need to
relube it. Is there a recommended oil to use? I have various grades
available ranging from 3-in-1 to heavy EP90.
Do you think synthetic motor oil is as good as Kano Microil non gumming
instrument oil? I'm getting low on that oil.
