Repair a Ceased GPU Fan with an Inaccessible Retainer Ring (EVGA GeForce 8400GS)

Short repair video for a GPU fan that has an inaccessible retainer ring or e clip. The blades are impossible to remove without using the technique shown in this video.
The video card used in this video was an EVGA GeForce 8400 GS, but this method applies to any GPU with the inaccessible clip/ring.
Sorry for the terrible video quality on this one. Looked good initially and I didn't check the quality after I started.

Nvidia 8400 GS coolers are rare, thi video is good, and i prefer using machine oil and a little plug so twice a year i oil it

A little risky, but very helpful. Thanks a lot.

Very risky indeed, but if you can't fix it youre still left with a bad fan anyways. The way I see it, there's nothing to loose.
