I have this unused IP lubricator that I wont be using now.



In this photo you can see the lubricator was bent up wrong when made. I have removed these bends and made one bend to start to install it the correct way.

These cost £18 new about $45 OZ but as I'm keeping the syringe I'm looking at wanting $35 for it plus postage or will swap it for something.

If you want better pictures let me know.

You need to solder the steam pipe into the barrel bit

The one I had fitted to my SL2 for 5 months didn't leak and I probably ran it 30 to 40 times during that period.

I'm sticking the lubricator on ebay to clear some clutter and also give me a bit of ebay cash.
