Starting to pull the Kenmore 1301 apart. Gawdalmighty she's dirty and there is so much friggin grease in her innards she probably has gallstones. I can only assume that since I live in a historically robust manufacturing sector of the country, most of the mechanics worked in heavy industry and just put grease EVERYWHERE.

I get the impulse, but these machines aren't parts stampers or whatever. They're precision machines. ANYWAY, I have to clean all this crap out because it polymerizes over time and with heat and makes a sticky mess all over everything. Sigh. Lol. I have come to expect it now.
