Hi, Tom -
"Oil-Lite" is a term for a sintered-bronze bushing that is a bit porous and
allows oil to be contained in the voids. The bushing I received from Moss a
few years ago appeared to be this type. The bushing should be soaked in oil
before use, and it helps to heat the oil to help drive out any air and allow
it to be replaced by the oil. I soaked my bushing overnight in engine oil
after heating.
Happy Healeying!

Thanks for the replies I received so far.
Does anyone know if the pilot bushing sold by Moss is the "oil-lite" type?
It's their part number 021-360.
Thanks
Tom
