Default He Restricts Them...

From a recent thread on solid rollers with pin oiling...
Quote:
I restrict them to around .090


I try to give 'em enough oil to live, but not to waste any up there. I also figure that if anything breaks and a lifter jumps the hole I won't have a full 5/16 passage spewing the lube - at .090 it just might keep the bottom end fed long enough to shut her down...
