Does anyone not remove the oiler and wick? Residual oil/grease will hold glass beads and media in the wick with a potential for ruining a new bushing. Another 20 second job and only adds a dollar cost to the rebuild. That way, everything is clean and a blasted oiler will eventually rust. I've had many that the spring was broken. I would highly recommend doing it. I also learned about insulating the shaft from Bubba's video and Michael's procedure. A good idea.
