I mean the old school hand pump type.Is there a classic one thats still being made?There seems to be a lot of cheap junk and some Beta ones on ebay.The Betas leak based on reviews.There's a lot of vintage ones on ebay but I prefer a new one.What are the good ones?

nice oilers those , I've had one for a while ,my only criticism is they are easy to knock over being so tall
also any of the old type cans work well , sadly now the choice is limted to cheap *** chinese stuff unless you can find a nice old one at a sale or autojumble

Tractor supply carries some ok ones...made in USA too. Goldenrod I think is the brand.

Not sure if OP can get them, but x2 on this! I have all 3 sizes, cutting oil, 30W, and bulk PB is what I put in them.

I have a Goldenrod brand oil can with the flexible nozzle. Seems like a quality USA made tool, but the fucker leaks all over the place.

I chalk it up as being in the same league as a grease gun - they just leak, deal with it.

Goldenrod.

Couple years ago I bought some oilers missing the spout from a discount shelf, somebody evidently stole parts off them. I wrote the company explaining the deal and asked to buy the missing parts, they sent them to me, no charge.

Nebraska I think.

Goldenrods are great.

Another great vintage oiler is the old solid brass "Eagle Number 66'. Do a search on Ebay.

Don't bother, they never seem to work and leak often, and the ones I where using were not cheap either, a 40 year old eagle and a smaller usa red oiler, eagle never worked and the red one leaks like old faithful. Only one I got that works is a straight tip plain jane oiler that you push the bottom in to dispense oil that I found in the trash. Save your self the time an buy these http://www.harborfreight.com/pack-of-3-8-oz-storage-bottles-with-twist-caps-66170.html, I got some and I use one for motor oil and the other for rubbing alcohol, they work great and don't leak, and they got no moving parts, just do not tighten them down really tight.
