Hi all, I bought Bridgeport a few months back. Pulled table and knee apart and cleaned and painted. Cleaned bijur oiler and lines, I get oil to regulators but nothing through them. I pulled 1 apart after degreasing and trying compressed air with no luck. I could see a couple being clogged but all of them? Seems I am missing something. Does the oil take awhile to pass through? There was a needle and some cloth like material in the one I took apart. Any help would be great. Thanks Ben
 
Happens alot more frequently than people would think. Especialy if someone in the past has used motor oil instead of way oil in the tank. I have never taken one apart, we just replace them and move on.

Soak them in solvent for awhile and then blow thru backwards. They are supposed to only allow a few drops per minute
otherwise you could have some that don't get enough oil to build up enough pressure,
