Mend Hamilton Mantel Clock

Hamilton Mantel clock, westminister chimes circa 1960?

My clock was aquired about 3 months ago and was stored in a garage. I brought it home, used computer spray (air) to clean out the dust on the inside, wound it up (all three keyholes) and it ran and chimed perfectly, until a few days ago. What can I try to restart it ? (as low cost as possible??)

put the sewing machine oil in to a hypodermic syringe, i use one that i filled my printer up with, where each spindle sticks out of the clock workings i give a SPOT of the sewing machine oil front and back, if possible try to get some oil into the main spring casings to make the spring slip when wound up (they may be dried out ) i then place a few piece of news paper cut to size to fit in the bottom of the clock to catch the oil as it works out

This clock is about a 3-4 day rewind, and it is already wound on the chimes, chime works, and minutes. There is no rewind...what about sewing machine oil-very fine-? if that is an option, as I've read about, where would I put the drops??
Thanx for any suggestions.
