thanks,
I thought about the pressure keeping potential oil out
i haven't felt the oil, but i probably have not had to add any for a
year or more .... it's right in the middle of the reservoir or maybe
60% full
the sls fluid is lighter wt than motor oil but i wonder if i could
feel the difference mixed in
it could be spheres and hoses deteriorating

i may also have oil intrusion
I don't see how, there's essentially no contact
between the systems. I had ours apart a bunch.
The only engine oil in the area is a little bit
of splash at the drive end of the pump. And there's
an oil seal there. Most of the pump is under high
pressure. For it to be black enough to see from
motor oil intrusion, the viscosity ought to be
more like motor oil. Is it?
