Hello friends.

I have Canon F-1N with jammed shutter.
I think good cleaning and lubrication will release it.
I know that it's possible to use lighter petrol.

How do I do it. I disassembled the bottom plate, top cover and battery holder. Main mechanisms are accessable now.
What should I do now? Where should I inject the liquid and how to clean?
What's after? Do I have to lube something? What oil should I use?

Thank you very much. :)
