 Alan,I have not had ann bad effects from WD40 except a clear hose went solid.  If the mystery oil does not do thatI am happy.  I will do a test.Hank

 Hank,you may not do any better with the miracle oil.I  spent a lot of time looking for alternatives to WD40 for a low viscosity compensating oil. Talked with 3 different chemists. One specialising in importing exotic oils.The low aromatic oils they advised still had a detrimental effect on insulation etcin my thrusters. I went with silicone in the end as did Emile. Have two 20litre containers of expensive oil sitting in storage.Cheers Alan

 Brian,I need the oil for my electric arm motors.  Normally I would use WD-40, but the arm uses HP nylon hoses connected a suspension air bag. The hoses will harden up with WD-40 and loose their flexibility.Hank

Hi All,I need to buy some compensating oil and WD-40 will not work in this case.  I think it was Alec that mentioned Marvel Mystery oil?  It seems there is more than one kind of Marvel Mystery oil.  Is it the MM14R that I need to buy.  I hope so, it is cheap.Hank_______________________________________________Personal_Submersibles mailing listPersonal_Submersibles at psubs.orghttp://www.psubs.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/personal_submersibles_______________________________________________
