          thank you,

Answer
There are available on the market clock oil kits.  Although you allready have oil I suggest you acquire one of these kits if for no other than receiving instructions.  One such kit is available through <howtorepairclocks.com/clock-oil.html>  There are qiuite a few other such kits you can locate by simply surfing the inter-net and selecting the one that appears most appropriate to your needs.  Regards WJP
