Another possible choice for compensating
might be the Marvel air-tool oil. They claim that it is perfectly safe for all
rubber components since most air tools have rubber o-rings. Silicone oils are
not recommended for metal to metal components like bearings.

Might be time to build
a tank for testing. I like hydraulic oil better than silicone. It is actually
slicker. We used it by the drum with the Pisces boats.

Subject: [PSUBS-MAILIST] compensating
Hi, The compensation
subject again…
We compensate the
Eurosub engines with WD40. Work fine at depth but somehow the engines
create gas so we have to pressure relief the compensation bottles every few
dive hours. I try to get thin silicone oil to see if that works better.
For the time being I
wonder how deep
Any thoughts/ expirience
??
