The stuck-shutter-blade-syndrome is a common problem that has been discussed many times on this forum.

Basically, don't squirt in too much lighter fluid, or you will cause new problems. A little goes a long way. Don't use tissue that will leave lint in the shutter. Cleaning the front side of the blades might be enough to free the shutter, otherwise clean the back side, too. If you drip fluid onto the rear lens elements, then you will HAVE to remove the rear lens group for cleaning.
