    put air in syringe the same amount that you are injecting. push air into vial to equalize pressure after drawing. turn vial upside down and pull back on syringe to desired ml. i dont know how you could do it wrong. are you trying to pour it in the needle? that would take a long time.

    Swab the top of the vial with alc

    uncap drawing needle on syringe

    draw a ml or so of air into syringe

    insert needle into vial thru rubber stopper

    plunge air into vial

    draw back desired amount

    pull needle out

    switch to clean, fresh, glorious needle

    I use 27g to draw, takes about 10 secs per cc. Ethyl oleate is the chronic. I can filter a 50ml bottle with a .2 millipore filter and 25g syringe in about 3 minutes.

    You aren't missing any steps if you're doing what was suggested, you're just using gear that's too thick.

    try warming the vial / amp so the oil becomes more viscous....

    but like big suggested, 23-25g should be fine to use unless ya gear is suspect.

    21 gauge 1.5, don't think it hurts, very fast

    Since no one else wrote this: draw the entire contents of the syringe full with air, insert into the vial, push all the air in then draw the oil. That is, if you arent already doing it.

    wouldn't that over pressurize the vial too much? so when you go to draw the oil it would go very quickly and possibly be harder to correctly measure?

    never done it so i wouldn't know, that would just makes sense with physics

    No it creates a vaccum effect and makes drawing easier. I always do this to facilitate drawing.

    what about post #7 . and you dont load the syringe full of air and inject it in. you inject the volume of air you are withdrawing from the vial. so if you are drawing 1 ml you inject 1 ml of air. you want to keep the pressure somewhat equalized. that is the correct procedure. and i draw from a 100 ml vial all the time so the pressure would be so high if every time i drew i was putting 3 mls of air and only drawing 1 ml of fluid, if it ever tipped over and the stopper was poked enough all my gear would leak out. i wouldnt want that much pressure in my bottles. maybe a 10 ml wouldnt be so bad cuz you wouldnt get as many pokes in the rubber, but i havent used a 10 ml bottle in years the smallest i use is 20.
