You may be able to reach into the cabinet under the sink and get some oil on
it, but I doubt it.  Could be more mess that its worth.  Pulling the fridge
is not that tough, really, but I would wait to pull it until you have time
to do all the other little nice things while it is out.  (Like adding an aux
fan, burping the fridge, cleaning out the propane orifice and combustion
chamber, etc.)
