I've done a search but can't find anything, I know a couple of people fitted pre-oilers, is there a "how to" anywhere.
Be interesting to know peoples thoughts as well, worth doing?

I’ve got one in a box ready to go once I can get the car in our workshop, been waiting since last summer! I thought it was worthwhile - henrym3 and lezmtaylor have them and possibly one or two others on here, try searching for instalube- there were some pics on the forum at one point

Can you post a link as to which one you purchased, I did a quick search but couldn't find anything.

I did look at that site, but couldn't work out which kit would be needed.

I can’t remember which one it was, I emailed them and they got back pretty quickly, they did send the wrong solenoid but posted a replacement quickly which was good given where they are.

I found one other similar system in the Uk but it was quite a lot more, can’t remember the name of it now!
