i don't like the auto-oilers because the oil leaks out when you're not
using them and depending on how you've got the tool hanging, it either all
ends up on the floor or in the tool. also, oil will travel towards the
a/c, contaminating the lines from the tool end.
just a few drops up the snout works fine.
teflon tape is fine. just wrap the threads and start 1/16" from the edge.
