It works well in transferring fuel and greasing

I've read a lot of reviews that they say have been leaked. I haven't had this problem. Although the threads in the outlet tube were a bit tricky. I thought that can't be right. I finally got the threads screwed in properly and no leaks! It works fine for me.

Pros
  • Absolutely amazing!
Cons
  • There are cons

Good cheap oil pump.

All metal construction: base, pump top, etc. The flexible spout has a metal base and the flexible section is hard rubber. The straight nose is also made of metal. For that much money get one for the garage and the other for the shop. This comes directly into my basement, among other things to apply oil when drilling through thick steel with a drill. It comes with a flexible spout as well as a straight hard spout. This way you can get into tight corners and don't have to try to straighten the…

Pros
  • Ideal for outdoor activities
Cons
  • Poorly designed

From what I remember Oil Lube Systems

From what I can remember this is a good old lubricator. It has some advantages over using the 3 in 1 oil I poured in from the original plastic container. It's easier to control the flow from the spout, you don't have to turn it upside down, and the long spouts help direct it to places you normally can't reach. The only issue I give is that the pump inlet doesn't reach the bottom of the can. Looks like at least an ounce is left untouched. And the all-metal pump inlet goes right into the center…

Pros
  • Stylish and modern design
Cons
  • Discontinued model

Fit and finish of the Dowell pistol pump oiler is excellent.

I like the 500ml oil capacity made possible by the tank's larger base with a narrower neck for an easy grip. The larger base also makes the lubricator much more stable and doesn't tip over as easily as my previous lubricators which could easily be knocked on their side allowing the lubricator to bleed out and make a mess! I have to admit that I found it a bit difficult to line up the threads on the two spouts to try them out for my future use, but a bit of perseverance made the day. For my…

Pros
  • Great for me
Cons
  • Not sure

The nose is screwed badly. Produces lots of oil

-Firstly I've tried several of these pistol pumps and I recommend at least 12oz or this 16oz. I also have a 6 ounce pump and it puts so much oil in the pump that it runs out pretty quickly. I've used an antique pump action shotgun for years, looks like something out of The Wizard of Oz. I like using it, but it's rusty and bulky. So I was happy to see these new designs. It has a few issues. First, it has bad threads, a straight nozzle goes in with no problem, but screwing in a flexible nozzle is

Pros
  • Enjoyable
Cons
  • Some cons

This oiler has a very good built in pump, so far no problems with the pump and everything works as expected or even better. Small, easily penetrates into hard-to-reach places, especially with a flexible spout. A straight run out also has its uses, it hits right on the spot (no punt :). Well I think the weakest link of this metal oil can is the connection where you change or swap out the spouts. It is very difficult to see how the threads go through the hole of the metal trigger, so you just…

Pros
  • Free for educational purposes
Cons
  • There are problems

large and long nozzle, works well

This is a large capacity oiler that holds 500ml (just over a pint). This is a high quality metal lubricator with a high quality metal pump (I like it a lot more than the clear plastic lubricator I've tried before which didn't have a good pump). It has excellent pumping action with a good strong return spring that gives you good control over your lubrication. It has two interchangeable nozzles, both fairly long (about 8 inches) - a straight metal nozzle and a flexible nozzle, which I prefer as…

Pros
  • Weight
Cons
  • Some small things
