[QUOTE="Dave1234, post: 127839, member: 23099"] On the topic of substituting modern oils, I have noted periodic reports of O rings disappearing, or drying up into little chunks. Recently I was looking for design details for O rings and ran across a Parker page showing O Ring composition vs fluid compatibility. I haven't had time to study it, but it sure looked likely that seals matching old seal specs might sometimes be incompatible with synthetic oils, hydraulic or otherwise. I think it needs followed up on. [/QUOTE]
