Not just -any- oil can ...

One with a little squirt-tip like the old 3-in-1. That ya can slip standard
size clear tubing over so as to get to the motor nipple way back in the
furnace or whatever.

And one that's practical to refill. And doesn't leak.

Anyone seen such?

Appliance repair stores and appliance parts stores have plastic
bottles of oil and rust-buster with a 6 inch tube inside that pulls
out for reeaching in someplace. You can put clear tubing over it too.

And they're refillable!

30 or 35 years ago When I had a car that needed starter fluid all
winter to start in the morning, I put a can of starter fluid in my
glove compartment, attached flexible tubing to the part of the stiff
plastic tube that those cans have, ran the tubing out the back of the
glove box, through a little hole in the firewall, under the air
cleaner to the carburetor. I stuck a half inch piece of the stiff
tubing into the flexible tubing and attached it there.

For the next couple winters, until I got rid of the ar, I just had to
open the glove box to spray starter fluid in my carburetor. Very
easy.
