How to best seal leaky GoldenRod oilers

The three I had leaked, threw them away, about three years ago, I bought 2 super cheap plastic ones from Harbor Freight, as a temporary stop gap until, I found something better. This thread reminded me, I haven’t done anything yet, as they continue to work.

Consider oil that gums up. Drain, put a spoonful of boiled linseed oil in, and set aside for a while (should
cure in a week). If you're in a hurry, add some Japan drier. Nothing sticks to oiled surfaces better than a sticky oil.
I think it needs to oxidize, so circulating fresh air into the can will help.

Being a woodworker, I've got plenty of linseed oil. Worth a try.
