Dynamo oiler

Post by jddevel » Sun Jan 20, 2019 5:48 am

With nothing wrong with the spring of brass fitting on my TF dynamo oiler I would like to change the felt as it appears to be past its sell by date. Normal sources only appear to sell the whole think which appears to be wasteful. What felt is used any advice please?

Next time you visit your dentist, scrounge some of the felt buffers that are sometimes placed between the teeth and gums. These are about an inch long by 3/8" dia. and provide an effective oil resevoir for the sintered bronze bush.
