Mend Kenmore Bottom Machine

cleaning off congealed oil?

My Kenmore won't go in reverse either. I took bottom plate off and looks like oil is very thick - machine hasn't been used in 5 years. How do clean off this thickened oil?

I would give it a good clean with white spirit then lightly oil with WD40
