Guest box Posted December 9, 2007 Share Posted December 9, 2007 I am missing the pipe fitting to the bottom of my bijur lubricator (outlet for oil). It appears to be a straight pipe fitting?? Is there anything special about this fitting? I also noticed there is an 1/8" diameter hole drilled on an angle into this threaded area. What is this hole for? Need help........Kurt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest imported_Speedster Posted December 9, 2007 Share Posted December 9, 2007 I checked the Oiler on my '29 and the fitting, that is on the tubing, screws directly into the bottom of the oiler housing. There no fitting between them. The fitting is the same type used at all the oil-line connections. I assume the '32s is similar? Here's a pic of one with a small piece of tubing still in the fitting: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tbirdman Posted December 9, 2007 Share Posted December 9, 2007 Here the 32 bottom connection with the tube connection also. Please note that in 32 the Bijur system went to a vacuum operated system vs the "push once a day" hand system. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest imported_Speedster Posted December 9, 2007 Share Posted December 9, 2007 That is a lot different!So, it Does have a special brass fitting there. You will need to determine the thread sizes of both and see if there is an available adapter. If not, it many need to be hand made.Ken, Does the protrusion on the top end of the adapter have any purpose?I lightened the pic so we could see it better: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest box Posted December 27, 2007 Share Posted December 27, 2007 I think that must be a check valve to hold pressure in lines????? kurt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Owen_Dyneto Posted December 27, 2007 Share Posted December 27, 2007 The fitting has a restriction in it, but no check valve. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you know where to get one of those fittings. I'm have difficulty loosening the male connector from the special fitting as it has no surface which to put a wrench on.
