I found something else in one of the 959 manuals that might interest you as there were some motors that were meant to be oiled and some that needed greased/lubed and supposedly the 959 could have either one per https://www.manualslib.com/manual/12...page=31#manual However, the 95 manual only shows the one with the grease cups.

Thanks Janey! I like that the manual is the same color as the machine. Also I am leaning towards oil for this particular motor. I've had 3 other 117 series Kenmores and they all had removable grease cups with wicks for lubrication.
