Re: any way to resurrect a weak fan?

So my refrigerator evaporator fan has become too weak to turn.  Well, it turns, but very slowly maybe 1 RPM when the normal speed is 3000 or so. I have a new one on the way but, before my food spoils, is there any way to perhaps resurrect this existing fan, just to keep it going for 2-3 days until the new one arrives?  I wiggled it once or twice which initiated full speed, but it didn't last.  I also tried lightly oiling it but no difference.  Thanks in advance.

You did not say if it turns smoothly when you move it with your finger.
(I do not know what is a weak fan, though)
