It's been a little while since I played, but I believe you need to first bring out your lantern. Put the oil vial on one of your other buttons. While holding the lantern, press the button the oil is on, and he should fill up the lantern with the oil.

You use a tinderbox with it You take some Swamp Tar to the Chemist in Rimmington. Click and use the Swamp Tar on the lamp oil still (the small one, not the big one outside his house) and dip the lantern in to collect the lamp oil you had just made.
