Someone may have inadvisedly loaded it up with wd40 or 3 in 1 oil..

Servisol in my old yellow/white/black can is simply alcohol (Servisol Aero-Klene 50), so would hopefully act as a solvent for greasy deposits. (Obviously any fluids should be kept away from the meter movement.) I recall there is- or was- another version of Servisol that leaves an oil film behind. (red can..?)
