Lubricated (5)

Ross

I think it could be either:

Which length description are you looking for?:

5

7

oiled

'lubricated' is the definition.
('oil' can be a synonym of 'lubricate')

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for oiled that I've seen before include "greasy" , "protected from rust?" , "Cut" , "Lubricated or drunk" , "Anointed" .)

I've seen this clue in The Irish Independent, The Guardian, The Telegraph, the LA Times, The Independent, The Sun, The Times, The Star Tribune, the Sydney Morning Herald, The Mirror, The New York Times, the USA Today, the King Feature Syndicate, the Newsday and the Evening Standard.
