Hmm. One more vote for sewing machine oil. How long does that last, for

Well, depends on duty cycle... somewhere around a year IME, though. Buys
you time to source a replacement, but that's pretty much it.

Why replacement? If it starts slowing down again, just shoot some more
oil in them bearings.

My guess is it'll last a lot longer than the nay-sayers here say it
will. I've done this many times--rescue sluggish motors by lubricating
them--and usually they for for *years* before needing attention.
