Alright, it sounds like you're dealing with dried grease/dirt.

At that stage I would let a small drop of Naphtha/Zippo fuel/Ronsonol/White Gas/Washing Benzine soak into the shutter mechanism along the cocking lever and maybe along the shutter speed ring.
And then exercise it throug all speeds again.

Don't use too much if you are going to try this yourself!
But if you do so accidently let the camera air out for 15 minutes.


Hmmm Okay, I was wrong concerning the front lens unit just unscrewing.
Hans Kerensky here on the board might be able to tell you more.
