Jim,
This oiler is proof that there are always guys around who want to make 
money one way or another. I can guarantee that the oiler will make a 
mess and will give the poor user the idea that he is doing a good job,  
but that the oil will never enter the Oilite washer as the pores are too 
small. Heating and subsequent cooling is the only way to get oil inside 
an Oilite bearing.
Kind regards,
Jack Aeckerlin
