What brand is this pump, is it reliable? Will this be applicable with A/C systems on vehicles such as an '07 Honda Accord, '00 Honda Civic, '04 Nissan Frontier, to a 2006 Lincoln Navigator?

In my experience some light oil is normal around the breather. If its dripping or puddling around it, then you might have a problem. I hope this helps.

Pour the oil into the machine, you will see it filling up through the glass at the back of the machine. There is an oil fill mark, do not overfill.

That is normal the window is to see the oil level on the unit. Its a stamp to label the air port above it so your aware the unit needs to breath because the it vents from that aera

when you turn the dial to filter oil, it doesn't filter? Make sure that it's pushed in all the way( the box).... it won't filter unless it's pushed all the way back.

I had the same issue with it, so I just add the oil to the water as well. It's worked great for me so far.

Once it sets up right for the 1st time as long as it is upright your good to go, it is the oil that the compressor has in it that well move in to the coils that cool and discharge heat from it, if you turn it on it's side like anything else , it well need time for the oil to drain back down.

The oil comes out steady until the end when pan is empty then spurts due to air. The pump out is pretty fast and tube needs to be anchored. DAMHIT

a few drops of air tool oil right in the air coupler, every time you use it.

Maybe the first time. Just what is in the hose, you can set to how much oil you need and just fill to the full line. I like mine it works great and once the hose is full I really can't see why any air goes in the system. If you had a retro fit fitting you could bleed the small amount of air out of the hose.

This little unit is all together it don't come apart. So to clean the oil you have to pick up the entire unit and dump it. I also been having issues with the electrial cord. It is held in by a magenet and if it isn't in properly I have actually been zapped a few times by this unit. If I could I would return it.

It depends on your luck. Sometime it came leaking right of the box. But it's a good idea to always put some oil on the tip before turning it in

I have not had this problem, however make sure it is not overfilled, and that oil residue is wiped away with a tissue after each use.

It acts more like a nubulizer (breaks up the oil molecules). It's cool steam. Mine recently stopped working right. I think it worked great for about a year, then the fan stopped working.

I ran it in reverse. Otherwise my husband took it apart and it worked for a little while. Then I bought this new one. I see there should be oil on a piece of paper every once in a while. I just learned that. I found a nice on the internet after I bought this one for about the same price and does the same thing at either Walmart or Meijer.

not sure. I just think that is how the oil in is is supposed to smell... its awful. I cannot use it. I am back to my icy hot spray which I LOVE!

This seems to be a common problem. I don't think my oiler works at all and the saw is pretty much brand new. I've resorted to using a squirt bottle with oil and do it manually. If anyone knows of a real fix, as in how to take the thing apart and fix the oiler, please share it.

This too, happened with mine. It had about 3 ozs of oil in it. I was told it is the little remainder of the oil & lube they used at the factory to test the Genset. Was it a lot (about the 20 oz they recommend?)

You need to put 5-10 drops of air tool oil in the air inlet EVERY TIME YOU USE IT!
