Message: <blockquote data-quote="_CY_" data-source="post: 3542662" data-attributes="member: 7629">the old daisy model 96 has shot tube out with several teaspoons of marvel mystery oil soaking overnight. found this: Try pouring oil down the barrel with the shot tube out. This will work 75% of the time to increase the power or reseal it. I have had 4 or 5 that didnt even shoot when I got them. I would go home pour some 4in1 oil down the barrel and it would work like new. 4in1 houshold oil works great, I have heard that some people use automotive oil also??? Put the gun so the barrel will point up, then leave it like that for about 5-6 hours. After that shoot it a few times with the barrel still out (gets the excess oil out). Then replace the tube, and shoot it again a few times, before putting any BB's into it. Then go and try it. If this dosent work then you will need a new seal, but try this first before wasting money on something you may not need, as I almost did as I was wrongly informed that it needed a new seal that would cost $35+ when it didnt. Hope this helps.</blockquote>
