emptystringer81 Posted August 12, 2015 Report Share Posted August 12, 2015 Was just wondering what everyone uses to keep their injector working smoothly, I wanted to oil the o rings but not sure what oil is ok to use. I'm a mechanic and I do know that when you add o ring lube it can shrink certain I rings Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CNC Molds N Stuff Posted August 13, 2015 Report Share Posted August 13, 2015 I use garlic or shrimp scented worm oil. Whichever bottle is closer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ccfish Posted August 13, 2015 Report Share Posted August 13, 2015 I always spray worm oil in the injector then use the rod to push a paper towel through it to clean out all the little pieces of plastic left in it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bassinjunkie88 Posted August 13, 2015 Report Share Posted August 13, 2015 I use a tad of WD-40 before I start every time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jig Man Posted August 15, 2015 Report Share Posted August 15, 2015 I keep a bottle of cooking oil on the work bench top. I dip my plungers in it before I begin and again later if needed. I also use it to coat molds that have been setting around for a while. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Ray Posted August 28, 2015 Report Share Posted August 28, 2015 I know that this is late and you probably already took the other guys advice. I am going to tell you what I use anyway. Petroleum jelly. When I bought my injector for Baitjunkys that is what the note that came with it said to oil up the o ring with. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

camrynekai Posted September 4, 2015 Report Share Posted September 4, 2015 Is oiling required by certain injector manufactures? I haven't had any issues with my ultra molds twin injector and it has 1000's of shoots under its belt using 70/30 plastic salt mix. Just curious.
