After 7+ years of service a plastic part on the bottom of my Fheng one shot oiler failed. I am assuming that a replacement part is not in the cards and that I'll need to replace the entire oiler.

I've seen this one that looks almost identical. https://www.kbctools.com/products/FL...OIRS/3287.aspx

What are the Torus machines being supplied with?

Could you make the part of you had access to a handy dandy cnc mill? 😉

It's been a few years, but mine came with the push style pump. I'm pretty sure they still come with the same style.

John has one in stock that I will have shipped on Monday, hopefully. More expensive than KBC but known to be a bolt on replacement for the old one.

The part that broke is a plastic piece that screws onto the bottom of the metal body. Two ears support a roll pin on which the lever rotates. One of the ears snapped off. It would certainly be possible to make a replacement in aluminum if it were worth my time and if the mill were to remain lubricated during the machining.

Got the new oiler today. Looks identical to the old but one of the 4 mounting holes doesn't quite line up. I wonder if they drilled out one of the tabs on the old one. Seems three screws are enough to keep it attached. I needed to swap the brass elbows with the old pump as the threads are different. Looks like 1/8 NPT on the new and 1/16 on the old. Filled it up and seems I'm back in action tomorrow.
