    Any sewing machine oil will be fine. Go to Walmart/JoAnns/Hobby Lobby and buy a bottle of Singer(or whatever) oil. It's all pretty much the same. As long as it's sewing machine oil. Juki oil is just sewing machine oil. I buy oil by the quart because I have many machines of my own and work on other peoples machines, plus I share it with my BFF. A quart lasts me for a few years.

    I was told when oil goes bad it will get cloudy like that.

    MAYBE it is okay BUT I wouldn't risk doing damage to my Juki machine or any machine, for that matter.

    Can you just offer to pay the postage? Seems like that would be easier.....

    I have run commercial machines and all I ever used and what my tech told me to use was plain old White Lily or food grade mineral oil.
