My Daisy Avanti 747 calls for non detergent oil otherwise the gun will suffer damage. Is the oil in this kit a non detergent oil?

I wouldn't use the Hoppes oil in this kit to lubricate a 747. It's good for cleaning the barrel, but could ruin the seals. Daisy recommends a non detergent 20 weight, and two recommendations I've seen are 3-in-1 SAE 20 motor oil #3MO2011 in the blue and white label(this is different from the standard 3-in-1 multi purpose oil in the black and white label) and Crosman Pellgun oil. If you still have questions you can call Daisy at 800-713-2479

non and detergent reminds me of transmission oil. In your transmission it is a problem. Never heard of such a thing in gun oil.If all else fails get some 5 or 10 weight motor oil. Do not use any oil with paraffin [wax] in it. I have a Ruger Yukon .177and have had no problems. Sorry I could not help you more. When I grew-up gun oil was gun oil.

I would not recommend it due to an experience I had using this product. It contains two solvents. One of them, "heptane" is rather agressive and will eat into plastics as it did on my bicycle when I used it on my chain. Some of it dripped onto the plastic chain protector ring and stained it. It would not rub off due to it's eating into the surface of the plastic. If your gun has plastic grips or accessories, I would steer clear of this product. FWIW, the list of uses shown on the product label does not include firearms.

I'm very happy with this. No oil is going to keep a firearm clean, but it does a good job of keeping it lubricated and protected.

No, it's a non-foaming liquid. The only foaming gun cleaner I'm aware of is called Gun Scrubber.

It's the Daisy 717. The 747 is listed on Amazon as the Daisy "Triumph" pistol and costs $40 more. However, the 747 has a match grade barrel and an adjustable trigger. I don't think the 717 has an adjustable trigger. To me the extra $40 is probably worth it since this gun is for target shooting only and you want to get every last ounce of accuracy out of it.

I would agree that it is since we have the same engine "technically". The issue you may want to consider is if you have been using a non-synthetic oil- this one is indeed synthetic and I hear that you shouldn't mix. If you are already using synthetic this is a fantastic oil for our cars.I am using it in a 2012 Audi A4 1.8T

My rifles came from Walmart shipped directly to my home. No cosmoline on either, just a very light coating of gun oil. Don't use copper brushes just a good stiff synthetic. Make sure you get all of the lubricant out of the tube. If not you are going to be surprised with the bang you will get. I did not clean my .177 as thoroughly as I should have and the first pellet sounded like a ma duce going off. Keep them all in the X ring. Semper Fi Molon Labe CHS USMCL

hello this kit what time brings, he brings no silicone oil, I recommend buying it and buy a 16% nitro to not damage the engine

This too, happened with mine. It had about 3 ozs of oil in it. I was told it is the little remainder of the oil & lube they used at the factory to test the Genset. Was it a lot (about the 20 oz they recommend?)

I generally don't use any. I have not taken it apart but it seems this pump is all polymer, so I don't think it need lubricant. I have pumped gasoline and diesel, which are both easy chemicals for this pump. I have also pumped alcohols, which are also easy. The most aggressive solvent I have pumped is ethyl formate, and the pump seemed to handle this well also. Other pumps that were for gasoline did not work for ethyl formate.

I have a small bottle of lubricating oil that I use for my hand gun. Use very little, works like a charm. A lot cheaper than olive oil!

My unit was delivered without motor oil. I bought a quart of Pennzoil 5W30 synthetic blend and added just over half a quart. Works fine!

This photo is is for light oil . The regular oil is all blue without any white . However is the listing is saying light it will be . Thanks

This lube is specific for the 'springer' style pellet guns, applied inside the air compression chamber. This product will not 'diesel' or combust when the gun is fired. Dieseling is a bad thing in pellet guns.

I've never heard of anyone using NO. 9 oil on a musical instrument. The question is, is it toxic? I would go to Hoppe's website and ask them.

I use 3 in 1 oil myself. A good grade of gun will work also. Remember, it is to prevent rust and corrosion and help with a little bit of lubrication on the blade and sheath.
