Yeah, those fans are just getting worse and worse.... may I suggest
one that was lubed from the factory with genuine whale oil, if that's
not possible, buy a pack of Pall Malls ...


Outstanding. And they are mild.

Red 100's the tall red
package... smoke a couple of those in the morning another couple maybe
three in the afternoon and if needed a couple more in the evening.. the
fan smell won't be as noticeable after smoking those for a few days.
