Oiler

[backyardsugarer]

Where can I find a new oil reservoir/dripper for a vac pump? My deleval 74 has a crack in the oiler that sits on top of the pump. I need to get this fixed so I can use it as a back up. Could I use a reservoir tank off a snowmobile and put a drip control on it?

Ebay. You can make an oiler out of any tank, hose and valve.I dont think a small oiler will hold enough oil under higher vacuum and going all day.

1/4" brass needle valves work good to control oil flow and are a little cheaper than delaval oilers. we used a 15 gal barrel last year but now have reclaimers, bungs are threaded put bushing in to reduce to 1/4", we hung our barrel on the wall cut a hole in the top for refilling.
