Re: Bijor Oiler pressure

I was working on my SeriesII and did a homebrew rebuild of the
oiler. Also, since I'll be using the machine intermittantly, the 1hr
cycle time of the oiler was not convenient. I made an adapter shaft
and mounted a 24vdc gear/timing motor inplace of the original, so I
can vary the speed of the cycle time to about 1minute if needed.
That way I can get going quicker.

I replaced the original felt filter(dirty) with filter paper from a
new high end FRAM oil filter(I dissected it) that uses a new tri-
lobed fiber. It seems to work well, but I was wondering if the newer
paper gives too much resistance for the way lube to seep through
during the vacuum take-up cycle of the oiler piston. I currently get
about 25psi after about 3cycles and is stays there for a while until
the lube pushes out. I see a film on the surfaces afterward, so I
think all is good.
