This is a real nice original brass oiler for a hit and miss engine, steam engine, or other piece of a machinery. It is about a #4 size made by Wilkinson in Massachusetts although it is unmarked as many Wilkinson oilers are. These oilers were used on some of the early Domestic and Sandwich engines and several other early hit and miss engines. It has a vent tube in it so it was meant to oil the cylinder of a gas engine. Everything seems to works as it should. It stands about 7 1/2 inches tall overall and is about 3 1/8 inches in diameter at it’s largest. It has 3/8 inch NPT pipe threads and they are in great shape. Both glasses look to be in good shape. It may need new gaskets but that’s the fun part. It has the original filler cap. Other than possible gaskets it should be ready to go to work on an engine or other piece of machinery with no extra attention as far as I can tell! These early Wilkinson oilers are quite tough to find in the wild or even at swap meets. It would even make a great spare on the shelf. The pictures tell the story. You’ll like it. I can be reached at 262 573 1931 if you’d like to talk about it. The item “Old WILKINSON 3XXL #4 Size Brass Hit Miss Gas Engine Oiler Steam Tractor Steam” is in sale since Thursday, August 9, 2018.
